The Offensive Line - Okung Could Miss All Of Camp

[blueman]

Gotta wonder too about how many times Rivers audibles out of whatever Whiz called, 50% of the time?

Don't they send in two plays and let Rivers change, based on what the D is doing?

Just read that Brady has passed 90 times in the playoffs and has not been sacked once, despite playing two of the best pass rushing teams in the league in us and KC. I sure wish Whiz would look at what they are doing.

And was only hit twice with one getting a roughing penalty. More surprised they outscored Chargers and Chiefs 49-7 in 1st half. Fairly average team from bad division suddenly dominating best teams in league.

I think I heard the Patriots OL coach has been there like 17 years? Maybe I heard that wrong. But that guy is something.
(and they do get away with holding).

He actually retired for a couple of years and their line struggled, so they brought him back out of retirement. The results speak for themselves.

Barksdale had mental health stuff going on, the team played who they had.

12 wins with Tevi and Feeney. How many more if we upgrade just those two spots?

that mental health angle was a smoke-screen. He signed almost immediately with ARI and the topic never came up again.

Forrest Lamp Eyes Bigger Role in 2019

[Formula 21]

Looks like Lamp is coming in motivated for 2019. Good news.

thanx for posting F21.... gonna take a swing @things here on the Oline,

in FA there might be someone like a John Miller and/or Quinton Spain, albeit not sure that's our best gambit/elixir ??

and not sure team Tommy John has shown the chops in the draft process w/Forrest, Feeney, Fluker and Tuerk/Watt (pretty much firing blanks more oft than not)

they also decided to go wideout over OT w/Travis Benjamin sans Bobbie Massie, and w/MW instead of Ryan Ramczyk (who btw was well worth a 7th overall)

and am all in favor of poaching other teams ps.... we lost our potential FS of the future/Tony Brown, and a backup ILB/D'Juan Hines to the Pack & Browns.

re: the Oline (and not that I was nor am a proponent of any of these guys, as 'tis just for an example....) there were guys like Brendan Mahon and Desmond Harrison, and....

hopefully we did well ourselves w/Trent Scott, and.... again personally, was a fan of Tyreek Burwell

and don't know enough 'bout our Oline coach, nor any potential replacements/upgrades, albeit wouldn't be a surprised if a change there wouldn't be helpful ??

and re: NE.... don't think it was their Oline as much as 'twas our IDL, i.e. Brandon Mebane & Co.

and AJ drafted/built an Oline w/a pass block first mentality, w/run blocking secondary, and now w/AL think we're 'bout the opposite (am good w/that for now btw)

do agree that MW's lack of separation, 'specially early on, is/could be a factor w/things, 'specially as compared to TWill's crossing routes underneath/in the flats, and....

agree, as had mentioned that quick slants to our TEs would be necessary against NE.

as mentioned in another thread, am reconfiguring the Oline to Okung, Tevi, Pouncey, Feeney, Trent Scott, w/Schofield backing things up, and letting Forrest and any incoming talent earn their spots in the lineup if and when our coaching staff is convinced they are ready to contribute as such, and....

will add that am tasking Pouncey w/the task of teaching Forrest Lamp center in the NFL.... when I think back to Travis Frederick and now w/Tyler Biadasz in this upcoming draft.... I see some center, or @least the possibility of the such, in Lamp's future.

[blueman]

What about Queensenbury? Could he play some guard if Pouncey is still good to go?

personally am going w/Scho and Lamp as my IOL backups, and hopefully drafting @least one OT, all of which are backups 'til if and when proven otherwise.

am moving on from both Quessenberry and Toner.

[Boltjolt]

Hopefully Lamp can start with a full off-season and preseason to practice and not rehab. Feeney has not been that good so he needs to be the backup. Wasn't Feeney a OC as well as a OG in college? Not sure about that though. Lamp was a OG and OT.
Well see how it goes.
