lol I remember when we extended Chandler and most of the huddle was sucking Gettleman's dick.

Man are you ever going to stop with this crap? You keep complaining about Gettleman lovers but now you're the one perpetuating the argument.

Am I ever going to stop wondering what could have been if we didn't have a shitty woefully overmatched OL in SB50?

Uh no. I'm not.

You know that's not what I mean.

From a Vikings board:

"

Remmers inconsistent as a pass protector

The Vikings were swapping Danielle Hunter and Everson Griffen between the right/left sides during practice. It was causing headaches for right tackle Mike Remmers. He would have one positive rep and the next two would be less impressive. He lost to Danielle Hunter on an inside power move and Everson Griffen defeated him with speed to his outside shoulder. In the running game, Remmers has been opening holes with Joe Berger on the right side. The big issue has been consistency in pass protection. However, he isn’t losing all the time and is squaring up against two of the best defensive ends in the game. 

 

Right guard Alex Boone has been a rock on the left side. He has been executing all of his assignments and hasn’t allowed pressure in the passing game. More importantly, he has been opening up lanes in the running game for running back Dalvin Cook. He and Rashod Hill put together great performances Friday. Hill won a nice amount of his reps and continues to take advantage of the additional reps. His hand technique and strong base have allowed him to win the leverage battle against power rushers. 

 

Reserve offensive tackle Reid Fragel put together several positive reps at right tackle with the third-team. He stonewalled Ifeadi Odenigbo, winning with a strong base and inside hand position. 

 

Center Pat Elflein rotated into the starting center spot during the second half of practice. During his appearance, he had quality reps against Linval Joseph and Shamar Stephen. The center race is wide-open, but Nick Easton has performed surprisingly well during team drills, too.

 

The pads aren’t on yet, but the offensive line hasn’t been awful – just inconsistent. Remmers isn’t getting torched on every play, but he certainly isn’t perfect, either. It will be worth watching the entire offensive line as more 1-on-1 drills occur up front."

My posts here were talking about our approach to our OL depth dating all the way back to 2012 when our franchise left tackle was released. We kept putting bandaids everywhere along the OL, and it finally cost us the ultimate prize. We got to SB50 on the back of Cam Newton. Once we got there it was our efforts or lackthereof on the OL that lost us the biggest game in the history of our franchise. This isn't debatable.

Every OL was overwhelmed by the Broncos that season. Stop. You can pretend to be a Gettleman supporter but judging from your comments... it's anything but.

Relying on Chandler was the only move we could make. In case you forgot, we were severely strapped for cash and he was the best looking option we had in our fugging system.

Get over yourself. I love the revisionist history.

All of this is wrong. Try again.

I didn't want Gettleman fired, he did a lot of good for us. But I will not be able to ever forgive him and Ron for the lackluster effort of addressing our OL since Gross made his exit. I think they both cost us a Super Bowl frankly. But homers are gonna homer here on the huddle.

Maybe The Hurndog should have selected Cordy Glenn in the 2nd round in 2012 instead of Amani Silatolu.

Then Gettleman wouldn't have had to struggle for years with no cap room to try to fix the OT situation with discount FAs.

Aww poor us, we just didn't have any cap space. What could we have done?

If you're actually as big of a Cam Newton fan as you have talked about, and care about his health, you wouldn't be sitting there posting drivel like this.

Also, Hurney sucks overall as a GM. This is something I've known long before you decided to hop on the wagon in 2011. Some of us actually saw the Hurney mess unfold.

Oh hey look thereds acting Superior again.

I'm very hopeful we got the best of this player swap with the Vikings, as we did in 2015 when we swapped Byron Bell for Michael Oher with the Titans.  Worked out very well for us for that season.

But it's one day.  So, I'm not going to declare that Kalil > Remmers just yet. I believe he will be, but I need to see him for a few weeks

I fully expect Matt Kalil to be the laughingstock of the NFC South OL. Hope I am wrong.

Really? So this little smart ass comment wasn't meant to start an argument?

 

"lol I remember when we extended Chandler and most of the huddle was sucking Gettleman's dick."

This stuff is getting annoying. Just let it go already.

Awwwwwwwwww... look at you!

Keep in mind he's blocking one man named Mario Addison in training camp. Lets see how he does against the rest of the league and for multiple series in a real game before you're crowning him king of the left tackles
