We suck. 

The players? Yes but Matsko? Absolutely not. Having a revolving door at tackle and still having the most rushing yards per attempt and 6th best for sacks is a product of his good coaching. We do not need a new O line coach. Tepper was just bragging about him yesterday and was the only assistant on the team who he praised.

Matsko has done an amazing job for us here. He's been tasked with turning some pretty shabby personnel groupings into a working line and he's managed to do it very well. This year, the team finished the season with only one guy from the starting OL at the beginning of training camp, and that one guy just retired. Somehow we managed to be statistically good and with a top ranked rushing attack.

If you could get him another Gross or Ryan Kalil (not just any Kalil as we've learned), it would be amazing. The guy knows how to coach a line and bring them together as a group.

Amini and Matt Kalil would like a word with you.

So a coach is magically supposed to make a dude who should be on the street (Amini) and Matt Kalil (who sucked just as much with the Vikings aside from his rookie year) hall of famers?  You can't blame a coach for the GM bringing in poo players like Amini and Matt Kalil.  He made Remmers look like an all-star (minus the Super Bowl, which was Shula's fault for putting him 1on1 with Von), and made Van Roten look respectable.  Matsko is one of the best in the league, and for someone who is around here as often as you, I'm surprised you don't see that

      This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY.

      The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.

      I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
