Great News! (Bernard ready for camp)

guys like Westerman or Redmon can block decent.

In the end we are gonna have to go back to the trenches. But having this many weapons does help for sure.

Don't like seeing Andre banged up already, happy it is minor.

I remember hearing Lapham some time ago say something to the effect of the offensive line needs to stop always doing slide-blocking schemes.  He said "Let them just line up and plow the guy in front of them".  He mentioned that you never really get the firm footing on slides and the idea is to create a cut-back lane but it never seems to work in short yardage.  

For him to openly question the blocking scheme, at least for short yardage, made me really wonder why they stick to it?
