Moton got beat a lot last nigh too.  The interior, was clearly the worst.    

fair enough, we got our lunch money espcially whipped in the trenches last night

but Erving was especially bad in one on ones this and last week.

This 10 day stretch gives the coaching staff a little longer to get Christensen, Brown and Jordan up to speed.

The play of the iOL is unacceptable right now. I can't imagine they're not going to be testing the waters on a lineup change during this break.

These guys would make John Riggins look pedestrian . Our solution? Let's blast Chubba up in there! That'll show em.

Our line had not made holes up the gut in similar sitations like that all season.  To send a finesse runner up the gut like that when they are clearly in stacked box, goaline D, is the most amateurish call.  I don't know WTF he was thinking.  I thought we got Arnold and Marshall to have big guys to grab it off the shelf in the corners of the EZ.

Sadly Arnold doesn't strike me as a high-pointer. I thought that was what we were getting, but he's a finesse TE who plays smaller than his listed size.

Linderbaum is my current draft crush. Would love Neal but I feel like there is almost no chance we will be in a position to draft him. We should seriously just use every pick we have on OL and if just 2 pan out as good starters I'll consider it success. Just go full on shotgun style.

Can he change his name to Fenderbaum?

Outside of Moton....NOBODY on this line is a legit starter or above a backup role. Thats just the truth and it's gonna continue to unravel over the course of the season. Im just hopin Darnold can stay healthy.

Moton didn't look like a legit starter for a lot of the game either. That game was just an all around bad performance by the Oline.

This should be the draft under Rhule that we invest in the interior. Our short yardage run game is poor, we been stopped several times this year with a yard or two to gain. The inconsistent oline play IMO is a major reason why the offense tends to have lulls throughout the game, which allows the opposition to creep back in the game.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
