The Offensive Line

Recommended Posts

I think some of it has to do with the fact that people are overplaying the run this year. The line is not playing to their potential but they are also playing teams that are hell bent to stop the running game of the Panthers and we all know what happens when we try to throw to much.

I still believe this o-line is a good one they just need to be more consistent and play to their potential (as they did vs. Atlanta this year). Run blocking is their strong point and we need to adjust to the stacking of the box. Pass blocking has never been great and they are not built that way especially trying to protect a statue at QB

I do not remember much offensive line rotation last year. I remember Hangartner and Omiyale stepping up for injuries, but oline rotation-->I don't believe you.

watch a game from last year from mid point on.Any timeout,commercial or team,injury or whatever,we rotated someone in to relieve someone tired and never missed a beat.Now do we do it as often as defense,no,we try to keep the other team on their heels.did you play football?

Teams are putting 8/9 in the box to make Jake beat them. They lol when Moose goes deep and double SS. There is your bad pass protection.

Throw in about 4 reverses and hit your TE or another WR in the seam and that 8 man front goes away.

Thats one part of it. I would also like to add a few key factors to our problems.

1. As you said 8 and 9 in the box and selling on the run.

2. Jake has a problem with not stepping up in the pocket. Thats a killer.

3. Our WRs are not getting open.

4. Vincent is not the same player. Another Groin surgery has hurt him and he prob will never be right.

lol.

Seriously though, I wonder how it's directly affected his play?

Really its dif then what it sounds like. Same with Turf toe. A Groin tear happens because you are not very flexible. Its a muscle that runs in your inner thigh. With two surgeries im sure there is scar tissue and his movement is not 100%. Groin tears take most people two years to get over.

    • XL might never reach his full potential here but I think he does have a legitimate shot at becoming a pretty good #2-3. We knew when we picked him that he was raw but his athletic traits were hard to pass on.  I still remember coming here and telling 85% of huddlers to not give up on DB yet after his first couple of years here.  I just knew DB was going to special. I wouldn't put XL in that exact same category but I wouldn't write him off yet. I think our playcalling is also working against his strengths.  At the very least, we should have a servicable #3 receiver w/ speed between XL, Horn Jr, and Meetchie. 
    • I think we haven't praised Morgan/tilis enough. In this thread we have some huddles best and its hard to figure out what to do with the 19th pick, if you understand that. Im also posting what "I" believe they are doing and what I feel is best. Those FA signess send a clear signal- They are going all-in to win this coming season. If you factor that in, just believe it first, it 100% changes what going on with pick 19, cause 51st pick doesn't matter as the talent level drop is petty big between the two. So 19 is the biggest difference maker on the current plan of all-in for the 2026.  Then you factor in who will be there at, (I better hold off on my other strong thought here- I think trade up is the best help too, yes using that 3rd to do so too...) DT, ILB(Allen? he didn't run), OC, QB(ooo my I don't want to rage drool my hate again about how I feel here, plus F it draft TY simp not joking)....... those 4 groups don't have the "BPA" at 19. You can add ILB Hill in there, but I feel 19 just is too high, other disagree.  Slot or TE it is......Kenyon is the only TE worth a 1st and he's the classic draft dilemma- All sort of he's a top ten lock to he's a non-blocking one trick WR that's not even worth 2nd currency. Then there's he's the clear winner from the TE group, thus increases his value more no matter the opinion.  Honestly I see the Matt Millen outcome as the current odds favorite, I think the huddle would go bonkers for weeks as result......just the truth tho, WR had the highest odds to be the clear BPA and slot is a need...plus if we are talking about Walker being a one year deal, Coker is a one year too(he may have another controll yr, I got to confirm it tho). Plus God forbid Tmac gets hurt, the drop in talent from him or Coker to Moore is fuging scary, I'd say more than the recent OT stone fellow. It goes back back to adding talent no matter what, draft now help, and where are  the weak points are in the system you want to run....  
    • good for him...but bigger is realizing that we are starting to develop talent to the point that when our FA's hit the market, teams ACTUALLY want them.  hasnt been that way in a minute.
