The Line...

[Mr. Scot]

...is actually starting to look like a professional O-Line.

Grades aside, I like what I've been watching.

There are definitely areas of the roster that need fixing (or at least tweaking) but the OL is finally showing up as a bright spot.

Yep. Can't blame them for our offensive malaise.

[Khyber53]

They made major strides. I'm still wondering if we're at our best situation at Center, but it does seem to be working. 

There's nothing like watching the Bears and Commanders just kill each others' QBs last night to make you thankful for what we've now got. 

I'm really curious to see how Walker and Darnold can play behind this line. Sadly, I think Mayfield is broken and it's not the blocking (by our o-line at least) that seems to be the source of his problems.

The line is night and day from 2019.

This is the best line PJ has ever played behind.  C'mon PJ, please have a good game.

[top dawg]

We have our LT!

It is so great to be able to say that. Really! It's been too much of a long time coming.

[Cary Kollins]

Now we just need a young stud QB…

That was a great hire in hiring Campy. 

I think I saw a stat that we are the only team in the NFL that have the same starting 5 through week 5.  This is a huge change for us.  I the past we seemed to have the worst luck with keeping our linemen healthy.

Like Rhule said.... the TEAM is close... unfortunately, his coaching wasn't.

Typically an adequate line leads to offensive production. Is McAdoo THAT inept or do we place the blame elsewhere? CMC sure as hell isn’t a problem. Surely we’ve seen Moore and Anderson and even our TE group be more productive than what we’ve seen with a worse line. Wtf is going on?

That will be one of the more intriguing things to watch for on Sunday. Wilks wasted no time giving McAdoo his thoughts on the offensive play calling, so we'll see. I think McAdoo is too stubborn/stuck in his ways to adjust but I hope I'm wrong. They literally just need to run more and up the play action calls from 10% to 20-30%

The offensive scheme/playbook/playcalling is a big problem and the issues compound with poor QB play.

I wouldn't mind Campen sticking around for the new regime.  He's made a very clear difference in our line.
