most teams with o-line issues have injuries as a partial/major contributor, but our entire o-line is healthy! Investing heavy cap/draft capital in the o-line won't work if it results in Green/Howard/Mason/Fisher/Scruggs/Robinson/Tomlinson
Holy Heck.... it's from 2017.... https://deadspin.com/court-documents-lsus-ed-ingram-accused-of-sexually-ass-1838371539/
We should have signed Drew Dalman at center in the off-season. He's ranked 5th among centers. Look at Jake Andrews' grades.
Dalman is making $14M/year; the Texans gave Cam Robinson $12M/year. Granted, three years v. a single year - but, still - I don't want to hear they couldn't afford premium free agents. They certainly could have, especially if someone stopped them from burning money on the bargain bin free agents they actually did pursue.
Yeah, I mean... even Joe Mixon, technically, was a bargain bin option: a RB on a playoff contender losing his job who could be had for a 7th round pick in the same offseason Barkley, Jacobs and Henry all switched teams.
It will work if they invest more in guys like Ersery. But they also need to invest money on a proven C/OG in FA too.
Yeah, I said this in the offseason. Also take into CGJ/Autry/Tomlinson/Neiman's money they could've easily afforded Dahlman. Hopefully they dont extend CJ and spend the money on a vet C/OG.
Nice bounce back by the OL. After getting mauled like rag dolls against the Seahawks, the Texans OL played a much better game. This line has pieces that should be stalwarts for years, but it can definitely be improved in the offseason. Yet, it’s in a lot better place if those fellas that are expected to grow into their position, actually do it!
Gotta give the O Line props man, CJ said in his presser they had to have some tough conversations and looks like the O Line showed up, keep it going big boys, you have a huge test VS the Broncos, but I am gonna be happy all week after this win. But good Lord, stop with the swapping out on the LG, that may be the dumbest thing I have seen in a while, one has to be better than the other, pick one and let them gel, I can honestly say I have never seen that
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Niners DL was pretty banged up, and they had to play mostly scrubs, right?
