Watching all this ineptitude on offense this preseason, I'm about to conclude that our offensive linemen really just don't have much ability. You can't blame it on the QB -- tons of teams have mediocre QBs and average more than 2.9 yards per carry. I mean come on.
You can't blame it on the system -- we're doing the same crap this year even though we have a system and last year's coaching cluster**** is gone.
Can't blame it on the lack of RBs -- we have Ricky back and he's shown he can still run like he used to.
Our receivers (including TE) are among the best in the league.
Can't be the OL coaching -- we have Houck now. It has to be the ability of the linemen, their cohesion with each other, or both.
But then think about it for a minute -- other than Carey, how many highly-drafted or highly-regarded free agent OLs have we gotten in the past 5 years? And I'm not talking about the Jeno Jameses and Taylor Whitleys of the world -- I'm talking about the Olin Kreutzes and Robert Gallerys.
DW and company really did patchwork with the OL. And it's ridiculous -- they were trying to replicate what they did in Dallas in the 90s, and what was always the strength of those Dallas teams?
The OL.
Boneheads....
