True enough. We should know about this after Turner managed in 2 seasons to destroy our OL. So the line coach is a factor. But so is the offensive system - a few weeks back KillerGoose put up good data regarding how the system Callahan and Zac put in place is - while something Burrow likes - really OL unfriendly. It telegraphs the play and puts the linemen on islands while letting defenses pin their ears back. Notice when Burrow's calf healed enough and we started doing some different things all of a sudden the line looked way better. Makes me hope Pitcher will keep on the change path and we adopt a less predictable system.
