It really doesn't matter who's back running the ball right now, our line is not opening holes. Why, is the big question? Is it because team's are stacking the box knowing we can't throw? Are our pass pattern's to easy to cover? I feel Gibb's has to be be able to do a better job with draw's and screen's to keep the defensive pass rush honest, that alone would be the biggest help in giving Ramsey time to throw, those quick draw's would also give us better play action holding the LB's for an extra second, team's attack our offense with reckless abandon they are not worried about surprises, I also think our WR corp's is overated Gardner is a waste he shouldn't even be on the field, no matter how good he may look here, or there, he will kill you in the end, and I am tired of hearing how Portis is to fast for the counter trey, nonesense! The blocking is not there where are the holes that he's missing? I haven't seen one, case and point about our offensive line 1st and goal at the 1 and we went backwards running the ball, that is smash mouth football no trick's just man against man and we couldn't move the ball 1 yard we had to throw on 4th down to score, I just think we need a big strong center Raymer is getting pushed around in there, I find it hard to believe that a 350lb lineman in Dockery can't push his guy back 1 yard, and it's not injuries because it's been this way all year long, I think our line is highly overated, no way I keep Samuels next year he is nothing remotly special, I think Wilson had a decent game should only get better, but that line may be at the core of our problem's and that's why team's don't respect our run they know man to man we can't block opposing D-lines, any blitzes we see just go after the QB they don't have to respect the run on the blitz because they know the guy's upfront will stop it, the more I watch our offense the more I am convinced our line's inability to control the line of scrimmage is the biggest problem.
