OK I will answer all of your paragraphs one by one. 1st of all a healthy debate is fine. Preseason, Season and off season are all game for me. Remember I picked them to go 16-0.
So what did the line do that was so bad on those 4 plays? 1 of them Ramsey fumbled and barely got the ball to Portis. Broken play should not count against the line but agaisnt the quarterback center exchange. So we are down to explain why the line was bad on 3 plays. If I read correctly what I saw Portis cut back or beat the line to the whole. They ran 2 running plays with diferent motions. Gut or dive between the tackle and guard or the counter. That was it. So if the linebackers and Safties follow the tackle movement it is easy for all 11 men to attack the runner. Unless you saw a different play this offense was vanilla. Understandable since the goal is to win season games. Technique is the goal for all of the players. One step at a time to 16-0
