Good lord. Where are all those posters saying we haven’t seen this unit and they could be great, while shitting on anyone who said it’s bullshit and quite clear this oline would be miserable?

Funny they seem to disappear when the seemingly obvious becomes blatant even to the most dense and they must be dumbfounded lol

I'm the one defending them because the first two games they were decent against excellent fronts.  This week, the line did not do well.  Some people want to just say they are trash all the time.  They were not the first 2 games.  They did not do well last night.

My question is, if ours are that low, wth does theirs's look like?

They can not run block for sh%t. Pass block is nothing to write home about, but better then their attempt to open any holes and are getting run over by the dline constantly. Forget going up the middle because that's impossible with this bunch. Weakest link for years.

The first two games they went from 22 to 31 ranked. Based on hurries, wb hits, time to throw before pressure, run blocking…what is the basis for not that bad? Darnold has had less time to throw before being hurried than all but a couple other QBs in the league. 
 

Just trying to find out what specifically them not playing bad in any game is based on.

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.

I see that @ncfan and I have another to join us on the Linderbaum bandwagon. Welcome, brother.

On the third and 12 to Marshall were Sam got drilled, no a sing person on the left side(starting with paradis) even put a hand on someone. 

3 free rushers. Pretty sure Darnold stared down Daley after that play, the same way he stared down Chubba after his drop in the end zone.

I'm aware.

I've only watched him his first 3 seasons of hell with the Jets.   🤷‍♂️

His last season at USC (after the Rose Bowl), he lost three of his starting offensive linemen…..then they freakin’ changed the offense he excelled in, which was basically letting Sam do his thing, to this funky “gumbo offense”…so bad, the entire offensive staff was fired a year after he left.  So…he played in two different offenses while at USC, along with the Jets mess.  He loved USC, but declared for the draft because he knew he wasn’t being coached well.

Then the poor kid gets drafted by the Jets.  Frying pan into the fire.

I remember the play.....This was the result immediately after Sam released the ball :

He got absolutely CRUSHED.  

It makes his Performance all the more impressive.

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
