I'll tell you what's shortsighted, and that is your interpretation of my post.

Did I say THE worst? No, I said it was AMONG the worst LAST YEAR. This is an article about a grade given to last year's performance by the line.

Do I think it's still bad? Yes. I sure do. There is exactly one different starter from last year, and he is a second year player who has struggled. I haven't proclaimed it the worst line this year. I am always watching for improvement. But I reserve the right to have a certain expectation. But that's all beside the point. This was a reaction to a grade given from last year. I have consistently pointed out the fallacies of their grades over the years.

So maybe you should back off. Can YOU do that?

And by the way, I don't think the offense will struggle, per se. It's just not going to be anything like it could be, and used to be UNLESS the line improves.

Oh, and what you are giving now are unsubstantiated claims, as well. Wait until the real product takes the field in a real game against a real defense.

I have seen them play. It's the same people. They look bad. Their coach has described it as a concern. You want to go argue with him now? Be my guest. It pains you to imagine that anyone can say something that makes sense, I know.

I expect nothing less from you.

The offensive line that is UNIVERSALLY acknowledged by observers everywhere as one of the worst in the league, and even our own coach has expressed his concern. You rank them 3rd BEST in pass protection?

For the love of all that is good, can we please stop paying any attention to what these trolls are saying?

well we only pay attention when it is promising. If this was about how much our oline blew in preseason and how drew was going to get killed and someone posted it, people would disqualify it by where it came from, but because it is sunshine and rainbows....

I hope Jahri solves the grotesque display of our oline in preseason, really do. Our oline is the most glaring weakness we have. If we can do better there we could make the playoffs.

point and case to my other post was the article by NOLA about week1 predictions. Guy predicted us to get our asses handed to us and it was widely dismissed... go figure

I agree with you burningmetal PFF is garbage. I don't get why people put any stock into that crap. These are the same people who told everyone Corey white was a very good corner.

Everything they say is garbage, especially if it doesn't support your opinion.

AsylumGuido · 09-08-2016, 06:16 PM

Do the same thing that I'm asking of burningmetal, shrimp. Wait to judge the offensive line until they have actual played together as a unit in a real game.

saintshrimp · 09-08-2016, 06:18 PM

If the line was so great why are they bringing in people at the last minute to try to fix it.this line is the The exact same line as you had last year and everybody was *****ing about how bad they were so what makes you think there could be any better this year

saintshrimp · 09-08-2016, 06:22 PM

Okay asylum what will it take for you to finally see and admit that they are bad how many games one two three Or after 16 games will you finally admit that they're bad

	If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
