I've watched every game at least 5x... Mostly watching the O line. They hold for dear life on every play, and they are slower than slow... Coaching 20% problem O line 80%. But, the coaching problems stem from a horrible O line. Is this just me or is this everyone else's thoughts? Merge if needed.

When your special teams and the punter are your best assets, you have lots of issues including the o line. We all know there is a ton of talent on this team. Boils down to coaching. Bottom Line

Offensive line is definitely terrible. Part is coaching, part may be skill.

WR coaching is also a problem. Terrible mechanics. Of course players are also giving less than full effort/ missing catchable balls. O-line weaknesses can be schemed to mitigate. Terrible WR play hamstrings you more.

QB play is also too inconsistent. He can run, but now everyone knows it and stacks against it. He makes two great throws and then throws two stinkers.

All together it sums up to we are not good.

You know after hearing that our o-line still stinks after 3 years you would think ol get a clue Butch would fire the line coach. but, he turns a blind eye and thinks it's on the players. Debord and receivers coach need to go to. If he wants to keep his job he will grow a pair and see his buddies are costing him his job.

So our O-line causes Dobbs to throw the ball late and never hit a receiver in stride. Every pass he has thrown today is behind his receiver. The touchdown to Smith, the touchdown to Kamara, the fourth down conversion to Pearson. All thrown behind the receiver. He waits to make sure the receiver is there before throwing it. That is not the O-lines fault

I have said it until I am blue in the face that the biggest problem we have as a football team is the o-line

However, it has been a problem for a while now. Butch had the opportunity to cut loose Mahoney (or Keep Pittman in the beginning) and didn't. He certainly can accept some blame for that struggle.

Jones biggest mistake as a football coach IMO

Not starting Peterman in the swamp, not going for 1, none of that.

It was not retaining Pittman IMO

That guy has to be one of the 3 best OL coaches in the country.
