I also wonder how much the OL relies on Rivers calling out protections and blitzes to them. They seemed to be just standing and waiting for defenders to come hit them. Probably didn't help that plays outside the tackles were almost nonexistent.

It probably didn't help that NO game planned to blitz and the Bolts didn't game plan to blitz protect. Let's keep this vanilla.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

F21...i agree that probably doesnt help (us not preparing for blitz packages). They do need to work on blitz protect though unless you think they might be giving something away by doing so? Definitely shows we arent sitting well right now with our starting tackles out. Losing Burwell didnt help.
I am all for a rent an OL if there is a team dropping a vet due to salary. We need a real RG if one of our young guys cant step up. Teams will just keep going after that weakness until we slide support over to it. I realize this may be a situation where it takes a young group a month of real gamesto fine tune and gel before they really get on the same page. We have seen that before....it just takes time for an OL to develop and with the line not set (Lamp dropping) we havent had the time to get very ready. Hoping we would come out faster than that but we may just have to expect struggle till the young center and RG and medicre RT come together.
im not throwing in the towel. Anthony is going to ffocus on this ...pretty sure as a run expert he recognizes whete there is an issue right now.Comment

Fouts said during the broadcast, and I remember this being true, that he had the same starting 5 OL seemingly forever. It was one of the keys of the success of the Air Coryell teams.
Gold star to anyone who can quickly name those 5 starters without looking at the answer below..................
Russ Washington
Doug Wilkerson
Don Macek
Ed White
Billy Shields

ok, now name the healthy starting 5 they count on for this season. that was where I was headed with revising the list after injuries knocked guys out. Clark must be wearing the invisible man uniform as I'm not reading anything about him getting significant playing time.Originally posted by PORTERPARTY View PostLife is too short to drink cheap beer :beer:Comment

Seattle added another OL option after finishing practice Monday by trading for Matt Tobin from Philadelphia in exchange for a fifth-round pick in 2018. Seattle also received a seventh-round pick next year from the Eagles.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
