Both teams were tied for dead last in average weight among starting offensive linemen at 295.

Falcons had Vick amassing a nice chunk of those yards. For most of the years that had Vick unable to play most of the season, those were the years the Falcons' running rank had a huge dropoff.

Mike Shanahan likes strength, but he wants athletcism more. But if he can get both from a player, he'll snatch that player up quick, like with Trent, Ryan Clady, and this year LeRibeus and Compton.

And the Texans right now have all of the O-linemen be bigger than 300 lbs.
