Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

Hey at least it's something to talk about.

Better than some of the conversations that were going on prior to training camp.

True.
And i'm a guy that likes the OL and running game by nature so this discussion is right up my alley.
I was fretting about RT all offseason.

I wonder how long it will take for people to get interested in talking about the Pistol formation?

Good convo-
I'm out

I know you are all about the big guys up front!

I also knew we had a few holes to fill this year. #1 QB # 2-7 being CB, OL across the board, WR, and Both Safety positions. We got a few players to fill those needs. (we hope and pray!)

Good talking to you 30.

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

I'm way more upset we didn't add a legit corner over this

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

I have, for the past couple of years, been a strong advocate that we need two strong young QBs. I stand by that.

You definitely need two strong QBs when your OL is weak. I think the guys they have now will get better soon and when cut downs start and practice squads are designated, a OT or two will be brought in. I know for sure the team has guys already on their radar who are currently playing for other teams.

I couldn't agree more.

But IMO Cousins is not the second young QB we need and we could have used the Cousins pick more wisely.

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

Never ending JB saga continues.

May not be any decision tomorrow. It's actually sounding like he may not need surgery. Question now is do you cut bait now, or maybe PUP him for the first 6 games and have him available for the back end?

I would rather young talent get the snaps. JB is a known commodity; we know he wont be healthy down the road. If consistency is key to O-Line play, he shouldnt be a part of it. Cut bait.

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

Can he still be put on the pup? My understanding was if you practiced at all during camp you couldnt be put in the pup. (Malcolm Kelly last year)
