I'll be honest with you. I am beginning to think that our O-line is just improperly coached. That the Schemes maybe an issue moreso than the Talent Level Does Denver have an All-Star O-line seems like Shanahan knows how to coach an O-line [one of the reasons I like Kubiak for coach] Rocket River "Our O-line is the problem . . . . So . . .we gonna promote the O-line Coach to off Coord" - Coaches "huh???" - Fans
and since they promoted the o-line coach to offensive coordinator, the o-line has looked a ton better.
and i wouldn't argue with that at all. so it was coaching, then?? or both...coaching getting the right talent in the right spots.
The o-line may have improved some, but I also think the team got better at doing those short route, quick-outs, dump-off passes that NO OTHER team does even half as much as we do. For us, THAT is our total offense... forget about Carr even attempting to do a 3 step drop and survey at least 10-15 times a game, like the average team. That's why I was so shocked at the STL game... they were pulling plays out of the woodwork because somehow, STL has a worse defensive line than we do have an offensive line (probably the only team in the league who you can say that about). But, they have improved some... so I'd have to say its about 70% talent, 30% coaching... and the coaching is up from a percieved 10% at the beginning of the season.
The problem is definitely talent. I remember reading somewhere another coach's perspective on our o-line saying that not one of our linemen would make another team much less be starting except for Mckinney who is not an NFL center but is a decent guard.
