The real question is that why can we, schematically, always find a way to remain productive on the ground but so consistently fail in pass protection.

consistent on the ground?

consistent on the ground?

I would certainly say so. Yards per carry the past few years has been strong yes?

Thought you were talking as of now. My bad.

Nah, we're bad all over right now. But even still it at least feels like success on the ground is right around the corner. Personally, I just don't feel like offensive linemen in particular that aren't battling for jobs really put 100% effort into the ground game during preseason.... but protecting for a rookie QB against starting defenses should always be a priority.

I think once the season starts our running game and offensive line will be ready to work.... but the past few seasons have given me little hope about pass protection.

Find a good replacement for Bernadeau and I think you will be surprised at how much better our o-line looks. He's ok when he pulls, but his blocking otherwise is absolutely pathetic.
