6th ranked O line? ... Brees makes this Oline (at least statistically) appear far better than what it truly is.

The O-line needs an infusion of youth. And you can't tell me that any one is satisfied with Kelemete or Lelito as starting guards. Yeah yeah I know that Peat is the starting left guard but that is only when Armstead is healthy, which of late hasn't been that often. We are lucky that both Strief and Evans had a bounce back year. We can't count on that again.

Actually our O-line looks like it falters in the second half and isn't as good as they were earlier in the year. So.....yes we need new talent and youth along the offensive line and better depth. Oh yeah, Unger ain't no spring chicken either and our backups are all UDFA's. You can't build a line like that.
