I dunno, I think it's tough to expect two long term injuries along the line and have enough starting quality depth for that. And I think under the circumstances Fabini, Wade, and Heyer have filled in admirably. There's almost always going to be a dropoff in production when going from a starting OL to a backup, and when you have two key guys out, that only compounds the issue.

If we had managed to pull out some of those very winnable close games and were sitting at 8-5 right now I doubt we would be hearing many complaints regarding the OL depth.
