Our O-Line is the worst in the league in both passing and rushing.

#32 O-Line in the league.


For passing stats, Miami QB Daunte Culpepper has been sacked 21 times... the only team that comes close to that is Oakland with 18, the next 3 have 15 each.

For rushing stats, Miami RB Ronnie Brown is averaging the #1 least YPA of any back in the league with his carries. He is also getting tackled behind the line of scrimmage more than any back in the entire league.

Damn, that is pathetic. I hope the O-Line gets fixed soon.

Hopefully the line will gel somewhat and then we can try to get some talent in here. I think MCintosh should play better the more he learns the position.

I was saying that last year.:(
 
Lat year we had LT- Damion McIntosh
LG- Jeno James
C- Seth McKinney
RG- Rex Hadnot
RT- Vernon Carey

We brought in Shelton and he's playing worse than McIntosh did last year. Hadnot moved to C after impressing the staff when Seth was out and Carey is being hurt by our lack of good RG play IMO. I know Seth wasn't a fan favorite but he was a big loss, as was Anderson, and Toledo to this line. I don't know how it can be fixed at this point except for the eternal waiting for the line to gel.

Not to keep digging on Toledo but based on what was he a big loss.Part of one preseason Game. Toledo would probably be no better than the Guy we just cut. He was a very green rookie learning a new position on a bad line so I doubt his impact would have been felt.

Is there a list of O-Linemen who will be free Agents next year???


Jeno James
LJ Shelton
Bennie Anderson
WillWhittaker
Kendyl Jacox
Damion Mcintosh
Anthony Alabi
Trey Darilek

Thats all I can think of so far. Actually I will do some research on the matter but I hope we take OLine often in the draft next year.

Thanks, Wow our guys are free agents next year. I hope we can get strong on the O-line next year, via FA and Draft.

Apparently everyone but Hudson Houck & Nick Saban seemed to know this would happen. Everyone I read or saw in the pre-season said that azzcrack was worthless.

I was just kidding on our guys but most of them will be gone. Sorry if I mislead ya.

:lol: , it actually made me feel better. The idea of us getting a new O-Line, that can dominate.
 
I'd be happy with an O-line that can compete. Dominate would be great, but if our line could just compete with the defenses in this league we'd be much better than we are now.
 
what really hurts is how we lost out on guys like Kreutz and Tait, who both had offers to come here but declined and chose the Bears instead. Would be nice to have those guys right now...

Yea those would have been cornerstones.
