7 TDs so far from QJ and Ladd. The last 2 seasons with MW + KA gotten us 8TDs per season. WR fix is to find that 3rd guy. Someone should've stepped up to contribute 1-2 TD's.


O-line the weakness is the interior at C and some weird G play. Unfortunately we can't just trade for and start a new C mid-season can we?

If Boze was hurt, we'd start a new C. So yes, they could. the replacement OC would just need to be enough 'better' to warrant the switching rebound. That said, I don't sense they will make a move on IOL at all.

Then again, my lack of sensation has failed to detect changes many times in the past lol. could be I'm just dull.

Bozeman is not below average he is much improved.

Hart and Still have been really good draft picks and are playing great.

Ford is a must keep as well as Molden and Tart.

I also see Mack coming back for one more year. I think Bosa will be gone.

He is below average. Protecting Herbert on that cheap shot didnt make him better. Made him a good teammate but it seems now suddenly he has risen n peoples eyes as a better player.

I loved the shot he took and I'm sure inside the locker room he drew huge props. but its unrelated to play, however one decides his proficiency. I havent studied the trio enough to separate out the inside 3 to say yes its him, no its Zion, no no its Pip. Maybe its all of the above, idunno. I just know the IOL does not play well for large stretches of games. shit, one of their DTs was DOUBLE TEAMED (Zion and Boze) and beat them both in a flash to sack Herbie yesterday.

I am expecting/hoping for a huge fine. That was intentionally twisting a leg and trying to injure one of the best QBs in the game well after the play was over. If Herbert was Mahomes, Saunders would have been strung up on the field right there during the game.

Mike Florio posted at PFT the league should suspend the guy.

So if Rashawn and Joe are good in pass pro, and kinda good in run blocking.

And if Zion is a freakin' sieve in pass pro, and occasionally makes a crushing block in the run game.

...What do we got ?

An ineffective offensive line unit.

Screw grades, be they from NextGen, PFF or the rest.

GRo knows he is not getting what he needs.

I was very critical of Bozeman's play early on, but I have also said that he has much improved over the last few games long before him protecting Herbert. Most of the issues lately have been at the guard position. The o-line did seem to play better of the Bozeman play, hopefully that lit a fire under them.

agree with this - something is broken with the IOL - our coaching staff and GM can hopefully work out a fix.

Did he have, at least, a roughing the passer infraction ?

[AK47]

On the twists, he's always leaning in the wrong direction and can't reset, and has poor recognition skills.

Is he too bulked up? Looks like Tarzan, play like Jane too often in pass pro.

Can we draft Jane-looking Guards that play like Tarzan? lol

Based on what Roman has said in the past, I don't think they will change IOL either.

Roman emphasized many times it takes several games to figure out what works and what doesn't.

On the positive side.....he should thoroughly understand what doesn't work by now.

The absolute 100% boss move to compete with KC and get in their heads a bit too would be to trade for one Tyreek Cheetah Hill and really stretch the offense.

I don't like the man, but if the NFL is going to allow human garbage to play, might as well take advantage.
Herbert to Hill
Let's GOOOO
