someone on TV was talking about this a few days ago

he said if an alien landed on earth and he only had 1 minute to explain football to the alien he would talk about how the QB is the most important part of the team. Protecting the QB was the most important job which would mean the next most important job would be stopping the QB.

I completely agree with this assessment. Protecting the QB is the most important part of football and therefore the offensive line is easily the most important part of the team

with a good offensive line you can create a running game, you can keep a QB upright and you can make an average QB into a hall of famer simply by giving him enough time to find an open receiver

i like your argument that DBs are the next most important but DBs get rotated in and out more than any offensive lineman does. they dont stay on the field for the entire game.

the offensive line is involved in every single play regardless of whether its a pass or run.....the DBs are involved in those plays but play a far lesser role when the offense runs the ball
