… but he’s been really bad now for multiple years.

Well, there’s something to be said for consistency…

I guess it does help if the QB knows exactly where the first rusher is coming every pass play.

Left, right and middle.

With all due respect 

Coach Reich should have a plan to always protect the new franchise QB. Practice , joint practice , preseason etc - it should never ever be to where they allow another defense to tee off on Bryce , that’s insane. To just go out there and wing it, someone is gonna get hurt. To use “preseason” as an excuse to not have the OL ready is really frustrating to hear as a fan when the new QB is so crucial. Whenever Bryce touches any type of the field , there needs to be a plan in place. 
 

the OL - they’re in the big leagues and they act like they never seen a stunt before just because it’s preseason. That was some of the worst OL play I’ve ever watched. Really hard to believe that was a pro group out there. It was awful. And the Jets didn’t even have their big studs out there.

Fitt looks like he's ready to suit up and get in there himself.  You can't deny he looks the part.

But I thought preseason performances meant nothing??  Everyone could see how bad the basic fundamentals of pass blocking were, preseason or not.  At least the staff isn't hiding or downplaying that poo needs work.

Preseason wins and losses mean nothing. But individual performance vs. their matchup matters. And the 5 offensive linemen can be seen as an individual too. 
 

“Vanilla” gets thrown around as an excuse, but I think things are kept very basic to not only save concepts for the regular season, but also to see how players do in a raw matchup 1v1.

 

Our o-line was just beat up on. Scheme or no scheme. I agree. And now they get micro managed because of it.

I sure hope Dalton Risner is getting a long look.

Exactly

"Preseason", "Vanilla", "Not showing our cards" doesn't mean throwing Michael Jordan out there and getting your number overall QB murdered

Seriously. Why has he not been cut yet?  Hell, why is he even here at this point?  Hasn't he shown enough of his bad play?

[Panthercougar68]

This isn’t Matt Rhule led Carolina where players are gonna get cut out of rage from the fan base…come on people.

Jordan sucks but no one better Is walking in that door with the current state of oline depth in the nfl.

[Panthercougar68]

And from Bronco fan accounts, Risner sucks.

And here we were thinking a month ago the online was one position we were set at

Just goes to show you, you can never draft enough offensive linemen for security.  These guys get fat and happy if they don't feel competition coming.
