So you read my statement and assumed I meant all-pros at all of these positions? The team would probably have a better record if our offensive line and back up receivers were
average.
Last year's offensive line was average, they had a lot of weakness, but they were good enough to make RG3 a good quarterback. I know RG3's ability hid a lot of these weaknesses, but they were definitely better than this year. After the Pittsburgh game last year, the back up receivers played a bit better and the defense came up big time during the winning streak.
None of these things are happening this year. The offensive line regressed from 2012 and collapses in just about every play. I don't think RG3 trusts them at all. Backup receivers are dropping passes a lot, although in their defense, I'm sure the crappy offensive line is affecting the passing game. And the defense is well the bad defense we've been having all season.
I'm sure (and I hope) that with a better salary cap situation, the team can find better options to players like Chester and Polumbus. Coaching is an issue too, but thinking that this is the only problem is right down laughable.
