Why does John Matsko never get any blame for our OL?

Just wondering why John Matsko the "Offensive Line Coach" never get any blame for the poor line play?  I looked up his resume and it was impressive.  However I look at our O line the past 2 years and it's been horrible.

 

Just seems like when Oline plays bad it's either:

 

GM for not enough talent fault

Shula for not calling plays where they don't have to block (giggle yeah I know)

Rivera because he is the head coach.

 

I haven't seen 1 mention of what the hell does our Oline coach do?

Great coaches are the ones that can take a player and make that player productive when nobody else can. A coach has to be able to develop players. Have we seen that? I don't think so. It's debatable how much Amini has improved if at all and Bell is still terrible.

It's a tough call to make on where the blame should fall. Amini is D2 player, Bell was undrafted, and so was Williams. Then we go out and get Another D2 guy in Kug. The blame probably goes all the way around but he definitely doesn't have the talent he needs to be an effective coach.

We got a Lamborghini(CAM) and we keep putting hubcaps on him expecting him to shine.

The offensive line actually played well during the stretch last year when we were winning, and that was without Kalil.  I think he's definitely a good coach if he can get production out of that line last year.  And I think we they start settling down and preparing for stunts and shifts they will be better.  And if we can get some better pieces they will be even better.

Would be interesting to see in the last few years where our linemen have come from via draft position, versus those teams with above average o-lines.

 

Then compare salaries to account for bringing in free agent types.

 

I'd image you'd have part of your answer there.

in the last preseason game I saw Williams without being engaged by a defender, look at a blitzing LB'er as if it was a ghost and not ever attempt to block, that's not a technique issue that a fuging moron issue. serous as someone as someone season earlier, you cant polish a turd

 

btw I'm fickng smashed right now

Just playing devils advocate but you to continue with the car reference, we have a couple Ford Fiestas on the OL and you are expecting the position coach to turn them into F-150s.

Apologies because when I look at it from that point of view it does look like I was digging for dirt (not an excuse but on a 2nd glass of wine).  I did mangle your post. 

 

On the bright side, I could be Joe Person in disguise or even better, have the talent to work for ESPN...

 

Seriously though, did not mean to take you out of context.

      Miserable in all phases of the game

      By Johnstonny · Posted

      I know its Payton but he knows football...Dipper ran him off when we had a chance...we need people like this that can evaluate talent.... 'Nix was selected by the Denver Broncos in the first round (12th overall) of the 2024 NFL draft.[33] Nix initially drew the interest of Broncos head coach Sean Payton due to his high completion rate and low negative play differential in college, in addition to an impressive performance in private workouts'. Pretty simple... I bet he threw for coach too.

      If they trade Dowdle…

      By hepcat · Posted

      I swear I’ve seen the writing on the wall since Chuba come back that Dowdle is going to be traded. He is flat out a harder and faster runner than Hubbard and made the offense move better than Chuba, gained more yards per carry and willed the Panthers to victory with two massive performances. But for some inane reason, the coaching staff hasn’t let Dowdle continue his hot streak. There have been trade rumors and I feel like if the Panthers get a mid round pick in return the Panthers will take it. They drafted Etienne and Hubbard is on a big contract. It makes no sense, he’s looked better than any other Panthers player on the offense this year, but he’s not getting playing time with Hubbard back and it seems he’s being shopped for trade.  This team is just infuriating sometimes and it’s no secret why every year they seem to struggle.

      How dumb is Canales?

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      1) The decision to try to trot the FG team on the field to kick a field goal before halftime was completely ridiculous. You are down 16. The offense can come back to the line faster just line up and take another shot.    2) Whatever in the hell this Rico/Chuba thing is sucks. Everyone from the huddle to the media to random other fans on X are in disbelief. Chuba either isn’t what we thought he was or he has lost a step. I’m almost positive the FO doesn’t want to look stupid for paying him and / or Canales doesn’t have the courage to tell him he’s number 2.
