Our defense is good...
Special teams are fine (as long as brightful doesn't fumble)...
WRs/TEs are very solid...
RB is hard to say now, isn't fair to judge him when our OL blocks like this...
QB is obvisouly shaky, but given more time in the pocket, he will be better...
OL is terrible.

Once this is solved, we will be fine.
 
I 100% agree with you .. every1 is looking for problems in other areas. When it comes down to it, our offensive line prevents our offense from gaining any yards running or passing.
 
If our OL had even a lick of talent, we'd be an amazing team. AJ did very well and had a lot of poise considering he was getting decked on almost every play.
 
I don't see this being fixed (Offensive line) Smith must of thought he had his new born baby in his arms, he blocked no one tonight!

I hate to say this, but AJ looked like Jay tonight! It's not the QB people, it's the O-line!!!!
 
when feeley had time, he looked better than feidler
 
how do you propose this? mcintosh will fix the LT joke that is wade smith, but i still see liabilities at center and right guard that we have no answer for.
 
Why is Vernon Carey not playing, your telling me our FIRST round draft pick cannot start on this oline based purely on his god-given talent alone?

Yep.. I agree! And apearently McMichael would agree as well. He chewed the O-Line out after on of the series tonight. Then they showed the look on Wade Smiths face and he looked like he didn't have a brain in his head.

o-line was horrible...smith cant even maintain a block...they blitzed all day because they know our line sucks
 
For the most part I agree, but theres still a TON of work to do...the O-line is 90% of our problem. The D still looks good but on offense there is a long way to go. I think Feeley can eventually become a good starting QB, but first he needs to be able to have enough time in the pocket (or even have a pocket) so he can make a decent decision. He also needs to realize that we have other guys to throw to besides McMichael...especially that Chambers guy...As for Gordon, I'll reserve judgment until he actually has a hole to hit and isn't dodging 3 guys already in our backfield.
 
Putting Big Mac at LT will give us a solid side of the line with Mac and Jeno. This will help in a big way if we only have to help half the line instead of all the line.
 
How do we fix this o-line though? there's no turning back now...we're stuck with these guys. We might have to wait until next year to fix it. I agree with your post though...the talent IS there, but you can't get the ball to your stars if there's no time. They said Feeley looked like a "deer in the headlights", and they were right. Marino would have been a bust with this o-line.
