PFF's top graded guard for the week...


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

If Norwell makes the probowl this year it probably means we are having a DAMN good season for him to get noticed and voted for.

I'll take it with pleasure and worry about his contract in the offseason!  

I truly want us to find a way to keep Norwell & Star both.  Realize it will be hard, and made much more complicated by our murky GM situation.  But for now the possibility of having too many good players to be able to pay them all is a GOOD problem to have.

Each year, the cap grows and even with attendance down a bit this year, I don't think that will change. Hopefully between the cap expansion money and a retiring vet or two, we can get deals made with both Norwell and Star. Strong and cohesive O-lines and D-lines determine the longevity of good teams.

If Norwell makes the probowl and Matt Kalil continues to look bad, Kalil will have looked bad while playing next to a probowl guard. 

 

Not a good look.

Watched a few of his bad plays.  The Oline as a whole is bad when against stunts of any kind.  Kalil doesn't seem physically limited, most of the plays he gets beat just look like he didn't know who he was supposed to block.  Hopefully as the year goes on he will play better.

I'd still rather pay him to protect Cam than Star. 

As much as I'd like for the team to find a way to keep both without breaking the bank, I will have to agree with you.  Exceptionally good offensive linemen are really hard to come by.  And while the same came be said of defensive linemen, a very good OG is something you must have.  We currently have a pretty good rotation on the DL, not so much on the OL.  So if it comes down to one or the other, I'd have to say I hope we keep Norwell.  I'd really hate to see Star go elsewhere, but sometimes those things are unavoidable.

    • Ohio State no. 8 won it all last year.  No. 6 Penn State and no. 7 Notre Dame advanced to the semi-final. This year no. 7 Ole Miss is going to win it all.  
    • agreed.  Lack of games/opportunity makes him a non-factor in OROTY talk.  He is just now getting the stage where there is legit film on him.  Takes awhile to really see how guys react to all the different scenarios and to find the real weak spots on a QB's play in an O. 
    • Oh boy how the tables have turned...the passion and extent at which you defend Shough would make even the staunchest Bryce fanboys blush.  The bold part is especially straight from their playbook.  Even if someone here were to withhold giving Shough props, it's pretty understandable as a Panthers fan.  What's quite odd is becoming the biggest stan of our most hated rival's starting QB.  I don't think even Saints fans drool over him this hard. For the record I think this talk about "stans" and "fanboys" is cringe AF and I'm admittedly being rather hyperbolic because this is exactly the kind of discourse and language you personally love to engage in and it's fun to play in the mud from time to time.  There is absolutely no world where you do not meet your own criteria of a "Super Stan" for Shough with how loosely you apply that label to people for Bryce in here.  You're like the Final Boss of Super Stans.
