Offensive line is abysmal.

The GM and Coach drafted them, right ?

you mean, they didn’t think they were good enough to play knowing it’s a 17 game season and injuries happen

…and then seeing them in training camp,  continue to keep them on the roster 

there are  53 spots on a Nfl roster.  If a player makes the cut. That player should be able to play the position 

pro football, not college or high school 

Being drafted to play and playing better than the guy in front of you is different. The Huddle calling for Christensen and Brown to play ahead of the current starters is dumb as if they have better insight than the position coaches who evaluate these players on a daily basis. 

Coaches will put the best 11 guys on the field all the time. If these rookie O-line are that good, they would have beat out the current guys during training camp.

No.

Dumb is putting the same, under performing veterans in the trenches week after week and expecting a different performance result 

Dumb is dumpster diving for some of the worst ranked OLmen in the league   There were other options 

Dumb is drafting players that you can’t insert when performance or injuries dictate 

there are 52 players in Nfl rosters.  If they make the roster, odds are at some point,  they are going to need to perform   This isnt Alabama with 70 players

Paradis is just killing us…he gets knocked backwards every single play…center is such a key…our guards are awful too, but with a decent center they would be better

the book is out on us…pressure up the middle 

and of course those two on the left side…

This I keep hearing we should of drafted this guard, we should of drafted this tackle, none of that matters if your Center is getting bull rushed into your quarterback chest every play. 

Teams are killing on stunts up the middle of the line. Gregory went through Paradis block on one play as if he was one of the ghost Sam use to see on the field.

Except THAT ghost hits hard.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
