I'm not sure he makes it to 20...

This. I'm sure others saw it during the game, as well. How can you step up into the pocket when the center and guards are being pushed back into your lap? Whether you like Darnold or not, you have to have some sympathy for whomever is the QB in this situation. Who wouldn't have happy feet?

Irrespective of PFF’s grading methodology, if you step back and look at BC’s overall performance, he looked raw but credible as a starting LT, which is all you can ask from a third round draft pick in his first season.

All you Chicken Little’s screaming that the sky is falling, chill. Surely you remember that our big money FA OL signings were brought aboard for their position flexibility. Problem solved. /s [Wouldn’t it be ironic if Deonte Brown sees his first regular season start against the Saints… at center?]

This may be true but it's pretty thin...

Yes, we start Fletcher at center and manage to win against the Saints, falling further down in draft order. This would be the end of the world type outcome, dogs and cats sleeping together...

None of you seem to appreciate the coaching imperative to lose conventionally…

+1 for mixing Robert Frost and Batman in one metaphor. [polite golf clap]

Agreed, but I was thinking more along the lines of…

I'll take a player with T-Rex arms, if he has T-Rex aggressiveness...

I think it would be more accurate to say that Nixon is the interim OC through the end of season. Anything stronger than that is speculation… but then again, this is the Huddle.

Well, it actually can get worse, but I get your vibe...

Okay. So, for the remainder of this year, who will you replace them with?

And replace them with…

Happy to see you back Mr. Scott.

Turkey at Thanksgiving but standing rib roast Christmas Eve. Horse radish and sour cream mash potatoes. Yumm.

Dry rubbed turkey, start with breast side down on a bed of carrots, celery, onion and Granny Smith apple, then flip bird to breast up, 375 for 30 minutes to brown the top. Use the aromatics, white wine and pan drippings to make a killer gravy. Sour cream rustic mashed potatoes, peas, sausage and apple cornbread stuffing. LOTS of butter in everything. Chilled apple cider. Chocolate pecan, pumpkin and apple pies with scoops of vanilla ice cream. Pass out later.

Fixed? In the same way that one would spay or neuter a dog? That would explain some of the interior O line play recently…

Ding. Ding. Ding. We have a winner...

I’ll take the other side of that bet. Not because Sam’s last four games have been starter quality, they weren’t, but because no reasonable person can apportion responsibility solely on Sam, when this clusterf*ck has been a true team effort; players, coaches, front office. Truly. The front office and coaching staff will give him next training camp with an (hopefully) improved O-line and a different OC to prove this season was not indicative of his true ability. When the team has invested second and fourth round draft picks, you won’t write off the asset without kicking the tires further.

Ballsy but I like it...
