The offensive line

[Texan Gopher]

Yes, our field goal kicker is not good.

Yes, our defensive coordinator and the schemes we are playing are terrible.

Yes, our defensive backs are below average.


The one thing no one is really talking about though is one of the things that I think are affecting the offense when we try to do anything but go fast.

Our offensive line has absolutely no muscle. We are so used to watching an offensive line that bullies people. This year's offensive line are terrible when it comes to pushing forward on running plays and they are even worse when it comes to protecting the passer against any kind of stunt or blitz's.

Yeah it's a big problem

It's eerily similar to the Vikings starting five, which isn't good in the least.

Really whiffed in the portal. Brought in 4 OL, 2 we know stink, and the other 2 can’t get off the bench. I think we do not identify talent at the position very well.

This position group absolutely must be upgraded in the off season.

There was a play where Beers had to block a LB that was about 70 lb lighter than him and he could not get any push. What would have been a 10 yard run was stuffed for no gain.

Beers is in commercials for a car dealership that have been running during the HS championship games.

With a good offensive line, is a RB as good as Taylor needed?

Just trying to find places where NIL money can be reallocated to the OL.
