Maye and O-line concerns

[mgteich]

I really think Ben Brown should be playing over Wilson, or ironically play Lowe at LT and kick Campbell to LG. Regardless right now we have to gameplan like the left side of the line is a problem. We can deny it or just accept that it's a weakness and plan around it. It is what it is - we are fortunate that despite facing ridiculously good defenses we are also facing extremely impaired offenses. So if we have to win like the 2001 Patriots then so be it.

an entire team with one weakness

All teams have weaknesses.

You believe that at this point Lowe and Brown are better than Campbell and Wilson. The team strongly disagrees. We are playing our best players. If is up to Josh and Maye to produce, even given this weakness.

I do believe that Maye should be able to do better against the DEN Defense than Stidham will be able to do against the NE Defense. We'll see on Sunday.

If the left side of the line is a problem, why don’t we scheme Maye to bootleg right more often?

You can help him but not on every play. Eventually he just has to win. I’m not freaking out the Texans DE’s are elite. He was never going to win the assignment.

I put that on josh and maye. They need to be aware which are the plays they dont have help and need to get the ball out or take a sack. Brady was master at this

Maye should do better vs denver than the texans. But on the other hand, they oline is much better than the chargers and texans and payton is miles ahead of caley or greg roman. So i think our defense is going to have much tougher outing not to mention the altitude which will sap their energy eventually.

The LT/LG issue is not only big for the next 2 games but it's going to be a huge issue going into the off season because the combo is obviously not sustainable into 2026 so they're either gonna have to seriously upgrade LG which basically commits to Will Campbell at LT for at least another 2 seasons when we don't know if he's psychically capable of handling the best rushers in the league once the rookie/injury excuse is out of the window or they get a new LT and kick Campbell inside to guard where he's never played.

I trust this group to do the right thing until they don't.
They're awfully close to batting 1.000 for the season.
