The funny thing is, you know how some people say the quarterback gets too much credit and also too much blame?

I think the same applies even moreso to the offensive line. If we were to have Peyton Manning on our team, I wouldn't be surprised to see those guys earn Pro Bowl berths.

Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Drew Brees will make any offensive line look good. These guys are elite QBs in their primes. Any other QB, needs good offensive line play, hell how do you think Brett Favre was injury free throughout the season?

I don't think one needs to be an elite QB to make your offensive line look good. I don't know how you rank all the other quarterbacks but another example that comes to mind is Tony Romo and Bledsoe/Johnson.

Their freaking center made the Pro Bowl after that.

I would say the Cowpukes have had a pretty good line, definitely better than ours. They are getting old, but they are definitely not as terrible as our line.

Yeah... But do you think their center deserved to be a Pro Bowler, haha. He just road the coattails of Tony Romo, in my opinion.

Well if you are talking about this year Pro Bowl's, then I wouldn't put much weight into it. With so many people dropping out, you and I could have made it to the Pro Bowl.

Yes sir!

Our offensive line will improve so much guys! look at that Saints vs. Redskins game, why did our team click all of a sudden? Because we got the early lead and had something to fight for. That's why we have coaches to help motivate every player and for this to happen game 1 through 16. Don't compare last year to this year just yet, these guys will be hungry and a guy like Jared Gaither would help a lot but not as much as potentially hitting a hungry young LT who will listen to everything our coaches have to say.
But then again my guess is as good as anyone's right
