Yes, but both schools are known for defense.

SJB.... why did we draft him again.. oh a project pick.... in the second round... hmmm great pick...

saintfan · 01-04-2015, 09:08 PM

Yes is the answer. Next question...

Yes. The O-line was good at times, especially in the run game but gave up way to much pressure in the middle.

Goodwin was a shell of his former self and just should not have been starting. Evans and Grubbs simply aren't worth the money. They should try and replace Strief as a starter but keep him as depth at both tackle spots.

Brilliant. Wonder why this is not obvious to more people. Ratings for Strief are misleading. He's a natural swing man and needs to go back to that. Of course, that would mean drafting a starting ROT.

Why is offense line play down this season? - ESPN

If your an insider you will be able to read more of this.

I thought Goodwin started the season OK,but after picking up his first I jury he seemed to constantly be niggled by injuries and that's no surprise at his age. I do wonder if that is why Evans and Grubbs struggled. I like what I saw from Lelito but was he kept out the side because he wasn't good enough or was it the worry of injuries and lack of depth at guard that coach kept him on the sidelines as he could slot in anywhere on the interior.

Brees ability to scramble, and try to get rid of the ball (INTs), made the line look better than it was and him worse than he was.

You guys must have taken a collective holiday vacation to Colorado in the last few weeks to think that Evans needs to go.

Coaches and Players don't vote you to the Pro Bowl if you're having as bad of a season as you guys claim his was this year. And 1/3 of the votes by fans doesn't carry him to the PB either.

He is the next Saints player after Brees in my estimation to make the HOF (And I don't mean the Saints' HOF) and has a couple good years left in him.
