Skins O-line

I saw a few times when WRs were wide open but the QB had no time to even find them, let alone throw it in their direction. On the other side of the ball, our 4 D-lineman cannot create any pressure, so we are forced to blitz a corner or LB, that is why Harris looked so bad and out of position. The line coaches on both sides of the ball should be embarrased, these lineman for the most part are hand picked by the line coaches, so they are the ones to blame, not that there isnt enough blame to go around for that poor JV showing on sunday.

I would cut our defensive coaches some slack, lets face it they have had no opportunity to draft or sign any kind of serious talent other than Griffen on the line, and he's not really a pass rusher, for the most part they have been doing a great job with very little, but you can only get by on cunning and guile for so long eventually you have to have talent.

Our offensive line is another story, a lot of high draft picks and big money free agents.
