Fitt is not gonna get a pass if he cant fix this O line. Thing is..We have already had great defenses in the past, Great QB play, great running backs, D line, linebackers, etc. BUT we have ALWAYS had bad O lines that cost us any real success. If he is gonna be better than past GMs he NEEDS TO FIX THE O LINE. Plain and simple.

I e said before that I think the plan was to sign stopgaps this year and build the OL via the draft.

Still looks that way to me.

Well those stopgaps are going to get Sam killed. 

I think he'd be better off wearing a complete suit of armor whenever he takes the field at this rate.

Brown is a little different situation from BC but the revisionist history about why we drafted Christensen is getting annoying. One of our top needs was tackle. We were thrilled when we got him and we passed on other talent on the board. He should be working his way into the rotation soon that's all there is to it.

Sub package?

And I don't think there's ever been a player in the NFL who's played all 60 minutes, so?

Well, back in the old days there were some two-way players. That hasn't been true for decades though.

Still, you don't have to play a full 60 minutes to get tired. Ask our defenders.

For sure he couldn't be expected to play every snap on the OL, but the idea of subbing him in on a jumbo GL unit could work, couldn't it?  No pass pro or footwork to worry about there.  Just grunt n go.

Like I said, I'm not against it.

Just pointing out what the coaches might be thinking.

For some reason, coaches tend not to sub out offensive linemen.  And not just our coaches, but most coaches don't.   I have wondered why.  I suppose continuity is part of it, but it does seem that it might be a good idea to bring in fresh players at times.

      What we had then, what we have now...

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      https://x.com/4thand1show/status/1975274357174784272?s=46   saw this this morning and came to post something similar. I didn’t just love the team or the wins, I loved those dudes man. They put everything they had out there every Sunday. You didn’t see a rep where anybody on that field was low effort in that era, and if you did they were quickly sent packing.

      Our 2nd Most Productive WR

      …is Brycen Tremayne with 108 yards. Not sure what that tells us but I imagine it’s some sort of gumbo consisting of the following: - Bryce can’t push the ball downfield  - contrary to what many were saying this offseason, the wr still needs a lot of work.  - we need Coker back badly.  - Brycen is pretty good! Congrats to that young man! Curious to hear other’s read on it. Was a pretty surprised to see he had more yards than anyone other than Tet and thought that was symptomatic of our issues on offense.

      I don’t think many fans would have guessed the Chiefs and Ravens would be where they are right now. Same goes for some surprise packages like the Colts, I’m not sure many would have put money on them being top of their division after five weeks. It’ll be interesting to see if this continues!   Not necessarily. The Chargers have lost both starting OL and their 1st and 2nd choice RBs. They fell apart against Washington. The Broncos have just beat the Eagles, so they’d be my favourite in that division, but they are still only one win ahead of the Chiefs. All the Chiefs need is a couple of results to go their way and they’ll be right in the fight for the AFC East. I think that division is going to be very close and probably not a 12 or 13 win division like predicted. Unless of course the Broncos kick on.
