Then just got the best Tackle on the market in Brown the next year.

I think the thing that gets me is their run blocking.
Brown, Karras, and Cappa should be able to push the opposition off the LOS and Mixon should be able to run north-south fairly easily.
But it seems the blocking is dictating a lot of lateral movement, which doesn't really fit with the skill set of those FAs brought in.

Pass blocking I dunno why there's struggle other than Volson is sandwiched in between Brown and Karras, so they don't have a good guard covering in between them. Also might be how they're being coached to pass block here, but I would doubt that.

Final note - I hate being predominantly in shotgun.
