I certainly see it that way.

OT- Pass protection last night was amazing (coupled with the no-huddle and Joes much quicker reads). The run blocking was, well, eh...

Watch the game again on dvr, you tell me. I have watched it three times already.

Same, and after watching it again I'm fairly convinced you didn't watch the right game. :)

Numbers don't help on the interior line. Its about pressure and penetration. Come on you know this. More importantly what are you doing up? I thought i would sneak in a few comments with 0 resistance.

Oh just stop. Suh didn't even touch Joe. He may have beat Yanda once or twice, but I wouldn't call two plays a dominating performance. Yanda had his way with Suh in both phases of the offense.

You are literally the only one that thinks Suh dominated Yanda. :rolleyes:

At the end of the day its about experience and improvement which is evident with the line we fielded last night. I feel comfortable with Yanda and the rest of the line going forward. I feel bad for Oher because he's playing musical chairs with his position.

I guess Jaminson Hensley was right.... McKinnie would get cut. Oh wait, he started with the first team in the most important preseason game. McKinnie came as close to being cut as Billy Cundiff did to making the team.

And even if Suh did dominate Yanda, for the love of everything he is Suh!
I think the troubles with our O-line were really overhyped. They said the same thing last year, just before this lol:

This is probably my favorite pic of the whole game, which is definitely saying something.

I thought our o-line looked pretty good against the Jaguars .

I thought McKinnie looked better at LT then Oher has looked .

[/quote]This again. We already talked about this. No big deal if you dont think getting bull rushed 5 yards in your backfield as getting dominated. Then wait until the regular season when your running back happens to run into your lineman, that got blown off the ball.

Will it be our best line? No, but like a lot of people have said, KO is way too talented to be a back up this year so if we can get him at LG over Bobbie Williams. I liked Williams in training camp but in games, he has looked old, slow and not as strong as Osemele.

McKinnie-Osemele-Birk-Yanda-Oher
Harewood-Williams-Gradkowski-Boren-Reid

is my guess for starters and 2nd string.

Osemele seems like a good investment so far, not really much to complain about with him.

Yeah I agree and he may end up starting down the road at LG .
