Re: Is Wade the problem? Thinking about the O-line
Regardless of whether Wade is the ideal back-up right now, we have to stick with him, otherwise we would be starting from scratch. O-lineman need time to develop chemistry, and replacing Wade with Heyer puts us back at square one, and I doubt that Heyer is so much better than Wade as to neutralize the learning curve (if he is even better at all).
A little bit more time together, under Bugel's tutelage, and this patch job line will begin to at least be functional (as it has already shown the ability to be against lesser opponents). The next few games are very winnable as long as we don't make too many mistakes. So we weather the storm, then invite Randy T. back in December for the stretch run.
