Start Christensen and Deonte Brown Next Week. There is no other option.

[KillerKat]

Moton-Daley-Tecklenburg-Miller-Christensen would be the best option assuming Tecklenburg is better than Paradis. An improvement there helps the guards out tremendously and doesn't start a chain reaction that reaches to the tackles making up for Paradis' mistakes.

[LinvilleGorge]

Agreed. The vets aren't getting the job done. Time to play the youth that might have the talent and potential to improve because these vets are who we thought they were and they are not gonna let us off the hook.

[Montie_0123]

I agree at this point because this version of the OL is not working!!

[Proudiddy]

Tecklenberg is worse than Paradis, fwiw.  He was getting bullied all preseason.  I'm hoping putting better pieces in for Miller and Erving will be enough to shore up the line and hide Paradis a little better.

I wonder if Christensen can play center.

Matt Paradis surely can’t

I'm sick of seeing Paradis getting punked  in particular.  Put anyone else in at center.  I've seen a variety of dlinemen eat Paradis for breakfast lunch and dinner .

You really don’t think Rhule will do this do you?

he strikes me as a little Riveraesque were this is concerned

This OL, as-is, absolutely sucks and will single-handedly ruin the season.  Yes, the defense got gashed today, but the Cowboys are a good team and the game really came down to us not being able to move the ball or score on the last possession of the first half and the first possession of the second half, which was also when Quinn realized if he overloaded the box with pressure that we couldn't stop it.  Then it was a free-for-all.  Fix it, Rhule.  That game shouldn't have went down the way it did.  Don't let it happen again.

I don’t disagree. I would move Moton to the left and start these two. Couldn’t hurt.

Think Sam was hit 10 times today. Sacked 4

Starting Brown wouldn't do anything until you change center. It's hard to tell were the guards stand as they keep having to make up for Paradis.

Not trying to be pessimistic but I don’t think Tecklenburg would be an upgrade over Paradis and Elflein is on IR

[Smithers]

I still can’t believe we scored 28 points and missed a FG that would have given us 31.  I can’t imagine how good we could be with an average OL

[woahfraze]

As bad as the interior of our offensive line has been, you can't just assume that Christensen and Brown are better or more capable.  They have potential and we all hope they can be.  But for all we know, they are guys that shouldn't be in the league. The coaches--who yes, could be wrong in their evaluation--don't think they give us a better chance to win than the current group they are trotting out.  And they both see how all the players in question perform in practice and know a hell of a lot more about football than all of us.

[HPPantherzfan]

I agree!!!

Someone reminded me Erving has played center before. Might actually be our best option atm. Moton-Daley-Erving-Miller-Christensen to start out in practice and if that helps out the guards, then good. If one of the guards shows to still be weak after the change, then replace either one with Brown.
