Can anyone name a successful team that had a bad or even below average O-Line?

I think you're right on with this one. As I said in another post, Chris Samuels getting nicked up really makes me wish we had more draft selections in the past couple of years. Being able to stock up on some projects along the O-line in the 2nd or 3rd round would look pretty nice right about now.

Samuels probably has more left in the tank that Jansen seems to. And Randy Thomas can't be far behind him. Along with serious help needed at D-line, O-line is probably the next area of need.
