A not so flattering look at Greg Olsen

[jarhead]

While I understand his strengths are catching the ball this was a little disturbing.

I don't really care, Barnidge likely isn't any better. They're almost strictly pass catching TE's and fit our offense well.

There wasn't really a problem last year.

[La Pantera]

It had Anthony Fasono, high on the "helping out" list and the "not helping out so much" list....soooo its gotta be right.

[4Corners]

Yeah, Olsen sucks.

Someone get on the phone and bring back Kris Mangum.

[Ken]

Yes, he's not the greatest at pass protection etc. but he isn't that bad from what I saw last year.

Besides his main duty is more pass catching and he is not asked to block all that much.

Nothing to worry about IMO.

[TheGreatestOfAllTimeCam]

Not that it would add a blocking TE; but I think we might end up with Ben Watson after Cleveland cuts him.

[Darth Biscuit]

Cam is his own blocker, so we're good.

[fieryprophet]

You have to remember this is a 3-year average, and NOBODY blocked well in Chicago.

[CollegePanther]

That's why he is a pass catching TE and Ben Hartsock is a blocking TE.

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

i don't think anybody was really under the impression that he was a standout pass blocker.

[Panths]

Seems more of a product of how we use him, not necessarily anything wrong with his game

[Chaos]

He's a hell of a WR though.
