I seriously hope that you are right. But this is pretty much the same group from a year ago, and you have two guys who are old by lineman standards, so it's not like those two can be expected to get better. There seems to be an expectation that Peat "should" be better, but the preseason didn't give any indication of that. So I just don't know what else I should be expecting of them as a group.

It's not the end of the world bad, but it does have a significant impact on the ability to run this offense.

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