Agreed 100%, the performance of any skill player relies on the OL. Early in 2008 our OL played great and was healthy, JC & CP lit it up. Second half injuries/age/poor play by the OL killed the whole offense. To blame JC is to ignore that Portis' numbers were dismal also.

These lists are pretty much a waste of storage and webspace. Just something to generate web-hits and kill time until Training Camp.
