Where was the blocking today?

Yeah, I am with the "O-Line didn't cut it." I am with SGG - we need some O-line draft picks.

I would go further. I think that the this season has been a testament to the lack of depth and youth on our line. Sure, there has been plenty of blame to go around, but I just haven't seen the push when we need it. Has our line ever really taken over a game when we need it? I posted earlier in the season (pre-season?) that our line was a concern going forward b/c of its age and lack of depth. Yes, it's been decimated by injuries and the loss of Dock was pretty big, but we have no real youth to step forward.

I think this is where all our trades and RFA signings have really hurt us. Those mid-rounders are where you find the depth and those were the ones we traded away.

<sigh> I know I am not saying anything new. I just am frustrated that a management team that built a championship through its o-line didn't see this coming. More than anything else, we need to build a championship line. After that, all else will follow. As for the D, I think we will be fine.

As far as I am concerned - if our draft consisted of 6 O-linemen I would not be dissatisfied (as long as we hit on 2 or three of of 'em).
