What people seem to forget is Wade, Heyer, and Fabini were all backups at the beginning of the season, and if they were still backups now, I'd personally be very happy with the O line depth. Wade and Heyer specifically, are probably better than most teams third and fourth offensive tackles, but when they both go down with injuries in a game, it's just plain bad luck, and nearly impossible to prepare for.
