Poll: How many games will our O-line cost us

[fish920]

So How many will they cost us? I am and always will be an optimistic person, but the more I watch our O-line suffer...
the more I think this team is going to have a LOT of offensive problems. Chad Henne is going to be ridiculed every week when
he is forced to throw the ball with D-linemen on top of him, and Reggie/Thomas are going to look like 2008 Shawn Alexander
when Sparano is going to force them to run through Gaps the smurfs couldn't squeeze through.

People tend to forget about them, but with a bad O-linemen...the entire offense will crumble to shambles.



Marc Columbo = another expired Cowboy
Pouncey = Out of position
Incognito and Carey = out of position and couldn't "pull" a weed from a garden bed (pun = as bad as they are at guard)
Murtha = Why need need Jake long back

Why does everyone see this problem but the O-line Guru himself?!?! UGH!!! I say...

Seriously? This is based off of three preseason games, that our o-line alone will lose us at least 5 games? Granted they have not looked great this preseason, its still seems like you and some others on this board are over reacting a bit. 5 games? really? At the very least adjust your poll and give the voters better, more reasonable options to chose from.

O-line cost games??? Hey, now. You should know this cause I told you guys already. My watch is different than yours, okay? I'm not worried about this O-Line at all. They've done some good things out there. We just don't move fast enough sometimes. And at the end of the day it takes time for a unit to gel. You guys may be concerned, and you can write about it or whatever, but I feel pretty good about these guys right now.
I'm not concerned about the lack of a running game the other night either. Everything is fixable, it just takes time. And D-Lines are going to way ahead of us at this point, okay. So I'm not worried about it...again I have my own watch. It's to be expected when teams blitz, slant and stunt so much up front. They were just faster, but nobody got man-handled on our line. Don't worry either, it's not like teams will slant and stunt against us in the real season. This is all preseason, it is what it is. You guys can flip out, or whatever, but I'm feeling really pretty good about what I'm seeing out there right now.

Go fistpump some more fieldgoals *******, lol.

Less than 5 means you think at least 4 games will be lost by the OLine alone. Need to adjust the poll.

Less than 5 means less than 5, you need to adjust your logic

the OL is really the only position where a player's individual performance isn't influenced by another player...where a WR needs to catch the ball thrown to him for the QB to be successful, there's no other player that can keep an LT from doing his job...so if it's not a physical problem, then it's just a matter of knowing the assignment and executing it.
