It's a damn good thing they have Andy Reid and Eric Bieniemy instead of Ron Rivera and Mike Shula. The OL is gonna be a liability but they know it and they'll try to game plan around it instead of changing literally nothing and hoping for the best.

This^^. Yeah Remmers isn't good but our inept coaching staff did nothing to counter act this. No roll outs, no quicks drops, screens, NOTHING. Been saying this since it happened

I met him a couple of months after the SB and he was pretty salty to me so screw him no matter what team he’s on, I’ll never forgive him for sucking so bad

If you hate someone for sports performance reasons then you deserve salty treatment.

He was super nice when I met him.

A lot of day 1 picks invested in that oline, am I right?? Lol

 

 

You need to go look at their injury report. Some of those are backups. 

LT Fisher - 1st

OG Osemele - 2nd

RT Schwartz - 2nd

So that's three injured starters that were drafted in the first 2 rounds through out the year keeping to the idea they value good players that were drafted high, followed by solid backups who were not. Holding the backups as some kind of example to follow is incorrect.

Was just a joke. Sheesh.

But I thought that the experts on this forum were saying that we should fix the OL before trying to get a franchise QB? Which one is it? Can’t have it both ways. 

Implying one shouldn't acquire a LT to protect your franchise qb before getting said qb by pointing to a single example, especially when that single example is widely regarded as the best young qb in the league, and particularly effective at both getting the ball out quick and maneuvering or scrambling to avoid the rush is cherry picking the argument.

Yes, if one could be assured of getting a franchise qb whose skills in these highly specific areas were as good as Mahomes, then prioritizing the OL wouldn't make sense. Since it's entirely possible to get a talented qb who doesn't happen to be almost inhumanly good at these qualities that mitigate the need for a good OL, maybe we should consider possible outcomes beyond ONLY the absolute best we could hope for, like say for instance Joe Burrow's rookie season being cut short by injury behind a porous OL, and factor those into our thinking.

It's not having it both ways, it's looking at more than just what you want to see to support your own argument.

    • Damn Logan Jones had a good day too. Was high on him coming in as he anchored that top Iowa line and is a fire plug inside. He's gonna be 25 to start the season so maybe he slips into the 4th but I doubt it, even if C isn't a premium position. His play on the field was top notch and the combine boosted it again. Arm length is about the only knock. But guy is plug and play at C.   This is a loaded class at C. Need to grab one. 
    • Bryce will be permanently replaced by a draft pick. There's not another Sam Darnold out there to save us. Tepper is going to see this throw because he dumped Mayfield and Darnold too soon. He's going to give it 1 more year before he will sign off on dumping another 1st round pick qb. Thats the cold hard truth of it. It doesn't mean we can't get younger and much better at the backup position. 
    • Maybe I should have used a different word and saved that for me. I want someone that has something impressive about them.  Someone that has potential to supplant a guy who is producing 25th best type of numbers. 22nd, 27th all that bottom third neighborhood.  I don’t know where that will come from it just can’t be from even a 4th round pick this year IMO. Unless FA is crazy productive.    I’ll give Bryce a better than bottom rating for his playoff game. Well above low twenties. But at least half of his games were bottom third level. Probably 2/3 to 3/4 of them were.
