Rivera says Travelle will play Left Guard

[Kuech the Sneak]

Thursday is gonna be interesting, just so see Scott and Garry and travelle back with the team

Is there no way to scheme around the problem? Surely Cam has the ability to roll out and also do that nifty 270 degree spin to elude penetration. Why not capitalize on that and toss in more quick, short passes too? Brady and the Mannings have sliced up defenses in small positive chunks of yardage doing that for years.

Can only roll him out so many times...the rollout is effective bc it is rarely done. How many times a game do you recall them doing it

Left side should be fine, but the Seahawks are gonna take advantage of our insanely weak right side

You can try to help a bad OL...but a bad OL is a bad OL.

Has Amini played at RG at all, ever, even during preseason?

Nope

That pretty much confirms they really had no intention of signing Wharton, or they would have at least taken a few snaps to see how Amini looked at RG.

Not just roll outs, but screens, dumps, whatever, put an extra guy on the R side line and/or in the backfield, and so on.  I know none of this SOLVES the problem, but in every game, the opposition has a strength to be addressed, and in our case, many times that will be a defensive front that can fairly easily penetrate our right side.  Do coaches not attempt to develop schemes to reduce the effect of these issues?  If not, I guess I can save blowing a grand on two or three games worth of club seats and we can speculate instead on what we are going to do with Clowney.  Just saying...are we really screwed before the season even gets into full swing (again)?

But people are worried about Cam's accuracy  :cam2:

^^This. At least 1 side of the line can be decent. Everyone here acts like Silatolu was waiting on a pro bowl invitation. He was really bad the first part of last year and became just regular bad the last part. This preseason he was back to really bad and only the really bad play of Williams covered it up.

People bash Garry Williams like it's going out of style but give Amini a pass. It's frustrating tbh. Both guard positions were bad, if Wharton can solidify one side with Gross (who only has maybe 2 years left) then it's all the better. At least Cam will see the pressure coming from the right.

there was nothing really bad about amini.

Yes, he played better at the end, but he waa never bad.

First are you serious?  I miss sarcasm sometimes so I don't want to respond just in case you are trolling me.

I know I'll get flamed for saying this, but this falls on Gettleman.

 

It absolutely does. He chose to load up the defense and improvise from there.

 

Which i have no issue with. Could have upgraded to B- on both O and D. Instead he went A+ on D and left O at C-/D+.

 

I think it could work.

[pantherclaw]

He played like a rookie at times. And he's gotten better.
