#3- Sellers isn't always on the field. When he is in passing situations, he's picking up the oncoming rush while Portis goes out to the flat. You can't expect him to pick up someone like Strahan after Strahan already had 5 yards to get his speed up. You need someone up on the line to block and Sellers doesn't do that.

There is no easy answer for the fact that our line is beat up...we need help from everywhere.

By the way, what was the final word on how long Thomas and Jansen will be out?? Anyone get a final answer?

Jansen is officially out for the season (on IR) and Thomas is out until December, maybe the entire year depending on his rehab..
