I posted this after the 2nd game, and received some pushback when everyone was in "The season is over" panic mode. They were discussing OL's with new personnel (not ours, I think it was Tampa) on Moving the Chains, and they said when there are that many new players on a line, it will take on average 4 games for them to start gelling. Our 2nd and 3rd games were in hostile loud stadiums. I said then these guys would put it together and I think we are seeing they are doing just that. Even Volston is coming along nicely.
