Maybe It's Not Just The O-Line

I've wondered the same thing, dgack. I tend to think that we still would have struggled on offense even if Jon Jansen and Randy Thomas were in the lineup and everyone else was perfectly healthy. Though that's just a feeling and not based on statistical facts. But Campbell is still learning, Santana Moss is in a funk, Brandon Lloyd has been an outrageous disappointment, and Randle El can't do everything himself. That part wouldn't change with any combination of healthy O-linemen.

I do think there's something to the playcalling, and adjusting your offensive scheme to the players we have. That's something we haven't done, and it's a legitimate fault of coaching.

The offensive line is what it is, and it's not getting any better. The guys we have now have to step up and above all open up some running lanes. They aren't, and it's killing this offense.
