I wanted to draft a LT high. Huddlers came from the 4 winds to tell me we were fine at LT and we needed a DE instead. Now we're kicking the tires of scrubs. Great. Bring in a coach who puts a priority on the offensive line. That's just not Ron.

For all we know we might be fine at LT. We refuse to play our best LT at LT.

I think my phone is trying to tell me something.

I've  reached the point where if I type the word "missed", it automatically suggests "opportunities".

[pantherj]

Whenever Ron says "missed opportunities" my mind translates that to "my players are too stupid to take advantage of the great opportunities the coaching staff creates for them."

Is LG more important than LT dir it's right now? 

No, but you aren't finding an upgrade to LT at this point.

The truly frustrating thing is that Ron and this organization live to claim that the answer is on the roster. This time the answer literally may be on the roster and we refuse to try it. I get it that they see Moton as the future at RT and Little as the future at LT, but THEY (as in the staff) likely don't have a future if they don't take care of the present.

I really don't get it.

Is he just so desperately stubborn that he has to prove he's right, even if it costs him?

He (Moton) is right handed.  For him to play LT, he'd have to pull.

Actually improving the LG position could improve the LT play. 

Back in the day, we actually had a legit LT in Jordan Gross.  He played significantly better when Wharton came back to play LG. Wharton coming back made a huge difference on the left side of the line.

As good as a route runner cmc I don’t understand why it’s so hard to ask him to chip the de before he releases into his route, it’s a crime that wasn’t implemented the second half vs the bucs.

I don’t understand the lack of two back sets or substitutions for cmc either.

Yeah, he might only give up two sacks instead of three. Improvement.

Remember how when Cam was young and healthy we relied on him too much to carry the entire offense? We're seeing the same thing repeated again, this time with CMC.

Let me clarify:  I don’t think Williams is the answer at LT. But I don’t think Williams is the answer at RT either.  Williams is either not fully healed, or he was never that good to begin with.

Wait a second, the same Jonathan Cooper that was a pu$$y because he got bullied some and had severe mental issues to begin with?!

You’re thinking of Jonathan Martin. Cooper just sux.

I can only assume that they looked at different lineman at LT during camp and preseason and didn't like what they saw. But we can find an upgrade via trade.
