AWESOME WIN....but somebody has to say it

Interior o-line looked especially bad run blocking tonight. I think it's time to scrap the zone blocking scheme.

Still liked what I saw from Robinson. 3.1 YPC may not look great but he is consistently making positive yardage.

I agree with many of the points made about the lack of a run game in the previous posts.

I am a purist in that I believe we will exit early in the playoffs without a consistent run game.

Then, I stated thinking. Could Payton pull this off? Can he adjust, week to week, to whatever the opposition shows us?

All it takes is one poor performance and we exit the post season. It also requires some luck.

Maybe Coach is doing what he can with what he has. This is a young offensive line overall. Hopefully the players will improve as the year goes on.

I Believe.

Think we may need to see if they're some players on practice squads or something to fix up this oline. Maybe we can kidnap our old oline coach after we beat Chicago.

the OL had probably its best game in pass protection but still there is room for improvement and plenty of it

run blocking? still not there

now screen blocking they maybe the best in the nfl

still the job they did gets a C- my book

Grubbs is surprisingly bad imho. Getting pushed back an generally just not dominating, a huge step down from Nicks.

Evans is far from his dominant self. I think whatever injury he has had is causing him more problems than what you think.

But most of all the problem is just the continous turnaround we have had on O-line the last couple of years has finally caught up. You can only replace so many guys befor chemistry will take a hit. Charlie Brown and Strief are doing a decent job and DLP isn't all bad. The group as a whole needs to get better thou.

If the cliche' "someone has to say it" were true. I wouldn't get all of the hate PMs that I do.
