OLine's 2-4 Record Crappiness Stabilized, 7 wins in a row now

[DropKickFlutie]

Now Durant is playing instead of Herron.
4 straight games now where they swapped Herron for Durant and Durant for Herron mid-game.

Don't tell me about continuity when you change your RTs within a quarter.

Fire Cirillo the OLine coach.

Hold onto the ball!

Mac is amazing but the OLine is crap. Why keep swapping Durant and Herron. Karras still on the bench....

This OL sucks. The “continuity” idiots have nothing to stand on when it comes to moves along the starting 5.

Continuity is a total bullsh-t excuse when they keep swapping Durant for Herron and Herron for Durant, mid-game, for 4 weeks in a row now. The OLine communication is terrible. Play Karras and move Onwenu !!!

Garbage again. Mac played really well so there is less heat on them but did we had no rushing yards or at least <15. They’ve been putrid.

Is there a way to scratch that 5th year option on Wynn? Tell the league it was a typo?

Sadly, no.

If we move him to guard now would it possibly lower his arguable contract value

I really thought when we got Brown, he would be the LT and Wynn would be the LG. And then Mason and Owenwu on the right side. Brown was a beast for us at LT in 2018.

The poor play of the O line this season makes me think the loss of coach Cole Popovich is a big deal.

They look like they are not sure if hat to do, playing on their heels.
Our tackle play might be the worst in the league.
The play where Mason pulled to the opposite side and tripped over someone’s feet epitomized the play of this unit.
It may be coaching as players except for Andrew’s have regressed, esp the left side. And our RT position is a joke.

The big problem is that the WRs cannot get open. No OL can hold off the Huns forever. Almost all the sacks that Mac took were coverage sacks; i.e. no one could get open. The reason the Brady left was because BB cannot draft WRs and BB still cannot get elite WRs; it is just not in his DNA....and he never seems to learn from his mistakes.

To be fair, the O-line has been the biggest disappointment thus far for us....Owenu was benched last night, Wynn in the 1st half was bad, and we literally couldn't gain a yard on the ground. Does having Brown back change things? I sure hope so....hope we get to find out next week.

 

[DarrylS]

Think we need to bring back Scar for a couple of weeks to straighten this mess out... the O Line looks and plays like crap.

What are you talking about? It's more the non-calls that are hurting the Pats. The refs just refuse to call holding in this game for some reason.

brady connected with brown on a 50 yarder that was called back. Our first TD drive, mac got 2 penalties against the Bucs on third down that continued the drive. I thought meyers fumbled early on but that was overturned

We actually had < 0 rushing yards.

Damien Harris 4 rushes for -4 yards.

Tom Brady had more rushing yards than the Patriots.

There were some BIZARRE plays for the O-line. And i mean BIZARRE.

More than once I saw a lineman literally blocking no one. One time it was Mason, maybe our best OL.
Fundamentals are lacking, legs kinda open, no explosiveness...

Now something that I noticed is how the Lineman aren't blocking their zones, many times going after the person in front of them no matter what. Thats why cross rushes and delayed blitzes blast through easily... Its maddening.

Really troubling how much they regressed, even without Brown. Wynn, a 6'1'' Tackle (from what i remember having researched) is an anomaly in the NFL and his weakness are really showing this year: He doesnt have agility to overcame is lack of length.

I don't know what can be done to improve this, because this is one area we don't often go buying in the FA and its hard to find a tradeble, good lineman.

Please Scar come back!
