Has anyone stopped to think that maybe our offensive line problem, are not a problem with our personnel, but perhaps a problem with our O-line coach??
It just seems to me that, Our blocking schemes are way too vanilla, and something is not happening in the motivation department, because EVERYONE along the line has taken a step back in production from where they were before Wise came onboard. Wade looked worse than he did as a rookie... Dixon has looked the worst of his career... Ruddy went from the pro-bowl to being a consideration for the cut-lists... Perry went from the top free-agent offensive lineman to a guy that was being blasted week-in-week-out for his performance on the field... and... well our Left Tackles have all been scrubs, but who knows what they could do if we had a better O-line coach.
Im still not convinced firing Boudreau was a very good idea... our O-line has gone nowhere but downhill since he left, and he did a pretty good job with Carolina's O-line last year.
Seriously though... if we don't see a HUGE improvement from the offensive line this year, Wise NEEDS to go!!! Enough of hiring friends for the job, find someone who can get the job done!
