Bottom line we have not focused the direction of our team to be line centric. We love the skill player and are perpetually attracted to the glitz potential a star player can bring.


I like the recent Washingotn Post article about Sherman Smith and his remarks about the Titans. Following a tempalte like that should allow us to consistently win.
My point was that they have invested heavily throught trades and free agency in our lines. For every Moss, Lloyd, Patten, and Randle El there is a Kendall, Carter, Griffin, and Jason Taylor. Additionally, they have addressed the lines through the draft and undrafted free agents as they've felt best (I'm not even accounting for times when they might have wanted to draft a DE, such as Gaines Adams, but couldn't; because that's all highly speculative). So I don't believe the issue is complete ignorance of the problem, it's "misunderestimation" of the problem or ineffective management of the problem.

I love having guys like Montgomery and Alexander on the team, but yeah in a perfect world those guys are strong backups.
