I have to agree with you irish. Games are won and lost in the trenches. They always have been, they always will be. What good is it to have a strong armed QB who does'nt have time to throw? What good is it to have good wide receivers who only get thrown to once or twice a game because the QB is running for his life? What good is a great RB with no holes to run through? We have some good DB's. How good would they be if we actually had a pass rush? How many INT's would we get? Why draft skill positions when they can't do their job because the lines suck? We have dealt with "patchwork" lines long enough. The FO made a mistake in overestimating our lines as did the coaches. It is time to address this issue. The next draft will tell alot about this organization. Are we going to go for the sparklely, shiny toys, or are we going after the engines that drive this MF? We might want to check on a new receivers coach while we're at it.
