Erving vs Christensen

Hold on, Erving was a first round talent!!!  He should just "be" better!?

I figure we're stuck with Matt for at least next season, so he'd better figure out that players are more than draft positions and numbers.

I hold zero hope for 2022 with Rhule at the helm, but at least Christensen wasn't complete dog poo.  The rest of the line...

Would bring me joy for him to pan out and looks solid in these last two starts. Gives more abilty to trade down and take Linderbaum, Green, or Ikwonu to help sure up the inside. I like Cross but if answer is already here that would be such a blessing.

The way BC was handled is one of the reasons Rhule has caused so much animosity among the fans. Christensen should have been starting at LT (or dare I say it...a guard position) by at least mid-season. We would have been able to to see whether or not he could be counted on to hold down one of the positions. Then we could go into the off-season knowing exactly which position(s) to address. Now, we still really don't know what he have. I don't know if a 3 game sample at season's end is enough to make a sound decision on the LT spot. But, if he plays well to end the season, I'd focus on the interior lineman in the draft after seeing how we were man handled by Tampa yesterday (and all season for that matter)

Out of all of Rhule's blunders ans mismanagement of the roster, his handling of the OL infuriates me the most. It's almost like he doesn't even watch the game tape so he has no idea how bad the guys are that he keeps trotting out there. BC should have been starting long ago. I may be wrong but I feel pretty sure that Brown could hold up better at guard than dudes like Miller and Jordan and Daley.

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
