Very true...the line isn't protecting. There was no protection on the play that Brees got smacked on

Neither Taysom or Winston are the answer though...keeping the old topic going

I agree. It will be a much more traditional offense for Winston to try to excel in.

Give him less decisions to make and there is less opportunity for the decision he does make to be a bad one

One could point the finger at the Offensive line when it comes to our woes in the preseason. They usually start strong but when Armstead inevitably gets injured the rest start falling like dominoes.

That first drive he had where he got us in the red zone you could tell he wanted to force it but he took back to back sacks. Old Winston would have thrown it for a pick. Hopefully it’s a sign of improvement when it comes to decision making.

Are you picking on "Popeyes Sammich" Andrus Peat again?

Ruiz has been the weak link in our Oline ... his play has our starting QB on the sideline for a while looks like. Was Easton already playing for an injured Peat?Because we had Ruiz in at RTG. Our line plays better with Peat and Easton
at Guard position ... right now the game appears too fast Ruiz ... missed a lot of training camp.

Do we still have that other kicker on the roster?

Ruiz is a center and needs to be playing center. He was a three year starter there in college.
