I'd be in big favor of an offensive line trade. The upside to protection is huge. If Tom has more than and .08'th of a second to make a read, we could probably start getting other receivers in the mix. A successful trade opens up the other plays on the field.
No time to develop a play. Just ridiculous. It pretty much limits what you can call. The defensive line is to the quarterback as fast as the ball is.
Protection is hot garbage basement caliber right now.
Everyone else is off the hook. I can't even begin to ask anymore why other targets aren't being utilized or making use of their opportunities when the pocket is folding in 1 or 2 directions on seemingly every single play that isn't a run.
Not only is that terrible from a production stand point, but it can't be very psychologically good for your quarterback.
If you were Brady would you not just basically be expecting a brutal blindside on any play that seems to last longer than 2 seconds? Guy is getting smashed. Not even a quarter of the way into the season and he's taken more punishment than he probably saw all of 2012.
Need to do something not just for competitive reasons. We can't have our franchise 1st ballot hall of fame quarterback getting mangled in a collision sandwich four times a game, on top of all his other hits, and expect him to last. Just dumb.
