I feel like all the hate on here for him is due to Polumbus sucking for 10 games or so and RG3 having the highest sack rate ever in the history of the NFL.
Doesnt he get credit for making compton a serviceable RT?
credit for Lich transition to center?
Does he get absolutely no consideration for '12 and '13 success?
did he give birth to Polumbus or sign him as our RT?
Is it his fault RG3 drops back 10 steps when the O line play call is for 3 steps?
---------------------
I think Foerster had to be replaced bc of the change in running scheme .. but damn, we are a mean bunch of fans. i think mob mentality is making him a scapegoat to an extent here.
i think he did a great job with the talent he had to work with.

Wait, Your defense of Forester is that he was able to guide us from being a #1 ranked OL for rushing to a #21 ranked OL for rushing? So, we should keep him until we get to below 30 like Haz. ugh.
Our line was good when RG3, or any of the qb's, presented a scheme challenge to the defense. Further, I would be interested to see data that showed where we ranked according to where the RB took his first hit. I feel confident if you take away Morris' ability to gain positive yards, and Griffin's big plays, like the 76 yd run against the Vikings even our 2012 line would have fallen back to middle of the pack.
I'll grant that Forrester had little to work with, but it's on the coach to persuade the OC/HC that he needs different players.
bottomline, Forrester lifted no one above their natural ability, imo, and didn't refuse to keep obviously sub-par players when told to.
