He's getting his QBs killed but he still starts every week. The answer to this is just that sometimes your hands ARE tied. Ogbeuhi is terrible. That much is true. But Winston is equally terrible. Winston has given up 2 strip sacks. He has caused Andy a ton of pressure too. However having Ced out there gives you much more upside with his athleticism and youth. While it obviously didn't work out, it's hard to say the coaches are left with many other options. If Fisher were showing better signs in practice then he would have been out there often. It sucks, it was a bad pick, but they are working with what they have.
Except we have a rookie draft pick that has been inactive every game that could possibly make a difference on the interior. And a 2nd year 2nd round pick who plays OT that hasn't been given the slightest thought of playing RT.
Zimmer has ran through his options. We have kept doing the same thing over and over that led to failure.
It sucks, it was a bad pick, and we have bad coaches. So the problem is compounded.
