All eyes on the OL in Practice today

With all due respect 

Coach Reich should have a plan to always protect the new franchise QB. Practice , joint practice , preseason etc - it should never ever be to where they allow another defense to tee off on Bryce , that’s insane. To just go out there and wing it, someone is gonna get hurt. To use “preseason” as an excuse to not have the OL ready is really frustrating to hear as a fan when the new QB is so crucial. Whenever Bryce touches any type of the field , there needs to be a plan in place. 
 

the OL - they’re in the big leagues and they act like they never seen a stunt before just because it’s preseason. That was some of the worst OL play I’ve ever watched. Really hard to believe that was a pro group out there. It was awful. And the Jets didn’t even have their big studs out there.

But I thought preseason performances meant nothing??  Everyone could see how bad the basic fundamentals of pass blocking were, preseason or not.  At least the staff isn't hiding or downplaying that poo needs work.

Preseason wins and losses mean nothing. But individual performance vs. their matchup matters. And the 5 offensive linemen can be seen as an individual too. 
 

“Vanilla” gets thrown around as an excuse, but I think things are kept very basic to not only save concepts for the regular season, but also to see how players do in a raw matchup 1v1.

 

Our o-line was just beat up on. Scheme or no scheme. I agree. And now they get micro managed because of it.

Exactly

"Preseason", "Vanilla", "Not showing our cards" doesn't mean throwing Michael Jordan out there and getting your number overall QB murdered

Seriously. Why has he not been cut yet?  Hell, why is he even here at this point?  Hasn't he shown enough of his bad play?

And here we were thinking a month ago the online was one position we were set at

Just goes to show you, you can never draft enough offensive linemen for security.  These guys get fat and happy if they don't feel competition coming.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
