this and that i heard a skins player (mike williams?) say that last year the coaches asked the Oline to really just go man on man, which i suppose would be fine if we had dominant O line guys but when you have injuries and less than stellar starting players to begin with, i dont think the best scheme was to expect a mike williams or levi jones or stephen heyer to win one on one matches up against the wares, tucks, coles of the world.
the player also said so far this year it looks like they will be employing more scheme oriented o line plays so that the success of a given play doesnt depend on an under-matched stephen heyer to hold up one on one against a DE.
the more i hear from players re. last year, i more i reflect on just how bad our coaching was last year. we probably had they worst coaching last year.
