Now THIS Is A Professional Offensive Line

Amazing how we overreact to one decent game. PJ had 60 yards passing just a week ago vs Rams 

Much of that was handcuffed play calling. But I’m also cautious with how much praise I’m giving PJ right now. Almost felt like the perfect game and not sure we will see it replicated.

The enormous difference between this O line and most of the recent past (going back to 2015 and beyond) is this group is young.  When they blow and assignment or just miss, you know they will get better and in general they have so far.   Past OLs when our past OLs would get beat, you know it was hopeless.

Expecting them to get better (and seeing it) is a much better situation than hoping they can somehow get back to where they were 3 years ago, sometimes before the injury. 

This is the position group I am most excited about.

OTs and C killing it. Keep Bozeman please! Our OGs look like a liability and is an area that could actually be upgraded but no need to blow it up. Just draft some OGs and let nature take its course.

Great time to draft a rookie QB. We a finally in a good spot to protect and allow them to thrive vs survive.

Too bad we couldn't give Cam a decent offensive line. The only thing those teams were missing

It’s no coincidence that the two best lines we’ve had in 10+ years were in seasons we went 12-4 (2013) and 15-1.  Amini Silatolu can’t haunt us anymore

The thing that sealed Rhule's fate to be fired was his backwards blueprint for building the team. He spent and entire draft on only defense, and should have built the o-line first. Then he brought in mediocre QBs and at that point it was only a matter of time before he was fired. Yes he did try to build the o-line but it was too late. Wrong order of priorities.

Now that the o-line has been built an had time to gel we can properly evaluate our QBs. You don't know what you have at QB until the o-line can pass block. First to be evaluated, Baker. Fail. Looked like moron out there. Up next PJ. Passing so far. If he poops the bed moving forward then Sam will be behind this nice o-line next.

Walker deserves credit no doubt, but I think the offensive line deserves most of the credit for the win on Sunday, offensively. 
We finally have a line that can make even a bad to mediocre QB look decent. Which is what I think everyone wants. 
Now put an starting level/elite QB behind this line and watch the offense really come alive.

I think Darnold should already be evaluated. During the preseason when he played behind the starting line he was still locking on to his first read and nothing else. If the first read wasn’t there he’d scramble. 
For me:

Baker - No

Darnold - NO

Waker - Maybe, but he isn’t a starter in this league. Bucs defense missed some interceptions last game. A better team would have intercepted him a few times.

You're right, but in his defense he wasn't allowed to throw in that game. No one is claiming that he's the second coming of Joe Montana. It's just proof that with a half way decent QB we have a good team.

    • I have not seen a good fit yet as a HC hire. Honestly, Saleh is probably the best one and that’s not saying much. Miami- Hired a DC with an average defense. Check the rest of his resume. It also doesn’t solve your main problem at QB with Tua/Ewers, etc. Clear downgrade from Mike McDaniel. The owner obviously thought he had a shot at Harbaugh and fired McDaniel to throw his hat in, Waller has an interview that gives the impression of this. Atlanta- Stefanski has won like 6 games in 2 years. Carried a few years ago by his defense. Defense has gotten older and he got exposed. Brought into Atlanta with a DC he didn’t hire. No idea what they are going to do at QB, no 1st round pick, a lot of resigning. Oh and their Dan Morgan/John Lynch/ John Elway guy is Matt Ryan who has not worked in the front office at all. At least Dan was a scout, director, asst GM, etc. New York-Not bad really but he’s only going to be as good as his OC. Joe Schoen is still the guy getting your talent, and good luck playing Dak Prescott, The Eagles D, and Jayden Daniels 6 times per year with the NY media writing about everything you’ve done wrong. Tennessee- meh. Probably should have gotten an OC to develop Ward but Saleh can at least make this team aggressive and physical again. I doubt many wanted the job. If Saleh fixes the culture and gets a decent play caller he will be okay. The GM there seems promising. If I had to rank the rest of the openings I’d say: 1-Pittsburgh: Enough talent to be competitive. Have some things to fix at key positions but long history of success and winning is in that building. Plus, you get Baltimore and Cleveland twice per year (I’ll get to that). 2-Baltimore: What in the ever living hell makes you think it’s time to walk away from Harbaugh. He didn’t leave like Tomlin, you fired him then the owner joked about it at the press conference. Who did you ever think you were going to get better than him. Somebody to support Lamar? Like drive him to the practices he never attends? 3-Buffalo I mean you get Josh Allen but they promoted Beane to be their Morgan and if you watched the Press Conference today the owner made Tepper look like Arthur Blank. Basically said he fired McDermott just over losing to the Broncos. Beane got up there and poo on a few players. The two leading candidates are Joe Brady, your current OC and Brian Daboll, your former OC who just got done running a circus on the other side of the state. Like the Ravens, who did you think you would get that was better? 4-Las Vegas Spytek seems competent as a GM and Brady is in the building but there is a real stink culture built into that organization that somebody is going to eventually have to fix. It seems like everyone that gets close (Gruden, Carroll, Pierce) gets fired. At least you have a shot with a potential Franchise QB in Mendoza. 5-Arizona Gannon just collapsed. Don’t know what happened, but it seems like Kyler is gone with no real plan in place. Maybe resign Brissett? Maybe take another down year and just rebuild the roster? Who really knows. I don’t see them having any shot landing a big fish, I honestly forget they don’t have a HC half the time. 6-Cleveland There’s a reason McCarthy and McDaniel turned them down. Still have Watson on the books. Have to deal with the Shaduer fans and haters. Aging defense. Don’t imagine Schwartz will stay on as DC if he is turned down, so there that goes. Honestly, I think Schwartz by the only guy that wants the job.
