How does this get fixed - realistically

Put another real OLB out there with Vigil and put Brown in his natural MIKE position and the results will be rather a lot better. 

For the OL we just need to admit the talent is not there in at least 2 if not 4 of the 5 spots. And until we can fix it we need to ditch the overly complex and reactive zone blocking scheme and use simple directional drive blocking. Shades of 2017 when after Lazor got Piano Man overruled and the blocking changed to directional the blocking dramatically improved. 


You're exactly right joe. I didn't watch a lot of the game Sunday, but I thought I saw Pratt, Brown, and Vigil on the field at the same time in passing. I think, well I know, that's what I'd try to play with moving forward. Did I see that correctly?

As for the line, we're playing with backups, with some of our starters being backup level. Yikes!
