There's an odd parallel with ML on the deep ball. CP9 and CJ used to criticize that, too. I don't think it was the line as much as ML being reluctant to throw it deep. I think ZT is fine with throwing it deep, he just doesn't have the line to do that. I'd be happy if he just called run plays till 2022 in hopes of getting a decent couple linemen.

I fear the dilemma is that there is a fear of Joe getting hurt which gets in the way of game planning to exploit the defense. If he’s healthy, air it out. Throw it deep. The line IMO is a scapegoat today… they gave enough time to chuck it up ala Higgins bomb that was dropped. If you’re going to take sacks and throw picks anyways I say huck and pray.
