Offensive Line struggles


NAS

Recommended Posts

I listened to Bill Polian on NFL radio recap what he saw from the joint practice with the Jets.  He said that Young reminds of Manning, will make mistakes as a rookie but will be a top QB for years to come.

What really caught my ear was that He also noted that our offensive line seemed to struggle against stunts that the Jets Defensive Line was rushing with. It’s exactly what I just saw in the preseason game as they couldn’t protect Bryce Young.  It’s concerning to me that they didn’t learn anything from the Wednesday practice.  
 

Yes it’s preseason but you want to see growth, and learning from mistakes. Jets have a top 5 defense but I expected more from the OL today.

1st scrimmage of the season missed assignments are bound to happen. The Oline just didn't show up as a group. They will get an earful in the film room and work on those assignments in practice.

 

No need to panic this is the 1st game of the season. Even week 1 will be ugly for most teams. Rome wasn't built in a day people.

I put this largely on Chubba, he seemed unable to do anything on the ground to back off the pass rush, and they just started t-ing off on the qbs… I feel us not having a bruiser back will be felt

The OL wasn’t creating any holes for him.

Yeah, kind of unrealistic to expect great things in PS game 1 from a brand new QB & staff against a really good D. I'd be willing to beat we will look a lot better next week. 

I'd get it if we had a ton of new faces on the OL but there is a lot of carryover on the OL. They looked atrocious. We don't have to sugarcoat it.

Not sugar coating it. OL didnt do well, but they are better than they showed today. We could have done at least a tad more scheming than we did, which would have helped a lot.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
