....for our offensive line.
We have a tough schedule to endure, no doubt, but considering the questions we had going into the preseason with our o-line and d-line. I think our d-line questions have been answered with the emergence of O-Gun and D. Bowens, and he additions of L. Chester, R. Burnett and J. Williams. The regular season schedule is giving us a few extra weeks to smooth out the wrinkles on our o-line, giving them some extra time to gel.
Det. - Fifth preseason game
Indy - Unfortunate injuries to the DT's is our benefit, and should
be a good day for our o-line to gel some more. Should be
a tough game nonetheless, especially for on defense.
NYJ - Our first real test, with John Abraham, their rookie DE
and J. Ferguson should be a stiff test from a pass rush
point of view, but our running game shouldn't be challenged
until week 5. Division game, always tough and a MUST WIN!
K.C. - A decent (not gooddefense against the run and pass.
Vermeil didn't make many changes in the off-season.
**** By this time our o-line should be ready for the rest of
season. That's four extra weeks for our o-line to gel
before they began to be tested week after week.
N.E. - Here we go now. This is when the schedule gets
interesting. A defense that will challenge our o-line.
they are not a dominating defense, but Belichick comes up
with great schemes. Division game, always tough.
Den.- Another tough test. This will be the toughest defense
we will face, IMHO. They are a very underrated defense
this year, but believe me they have a very good defense.
Buff - Divsion games are always tough.
Bye - worst case scenario 4-3, best case scenario 7-0 :D , we will
be much closer to the latter, IMO.
GB - The second toughest D we will face all season.
NYJ
Balt
SD
* These next 5 games will define our season and challenge this teams character.
Buff
Chi
Oak
Minn
NE
The only point I'm trying to make is that our o-line hasn't been truly tested yet, but the schedule is giving them time to gel before they begin to be challenged serioulsy. :evil:
GO FINS!!!!!!
