Imo, the #1 main thing that's held us back is a weak O-line, year after year.....
seems this franchise has always valued OT's only...…
was satisfied w/ avg. at best OG's & OC's.....
so we have a weak run game, too many 3 & outs & our "D" is forced to be on the field too long....
drafting Ced & Fisher killed us the past 2 years, & Bodine was always a weak spot....
perhaps we've turned that corner.....but we'll have to see what happens at RT....I just don't see Ced being strong enough to play anywhere....so it's Fisher or.....?
perhaps in next years draft we'll go OT, slide Glenn to RT after the rookie gets his feet wet....?
we need 2 starting caliber OT's…..if we want a S.B. run...

Nor do I feel QB is the main reason for our "limited" success. My main point was look at the boat load of QB's Cleveland has been thru with very little to no success. One would think out of all of them and a few being fairly highly regarded coming out of college they would have hit pay dirt a couple times anyways.

Look at how we played musical QB's thru the late 90's early 00's with no success. Dalton is a steady QB with the ability to win games. He's not Brady or Rodgers and gonna put the team on his back and will us to victory, no. But it's very hard to find those guys, there one in a hundred thousand !

But I feel we can have success with him with the proper coaching, play calling, and position players.
