Im fairly surprised he doesn’t have a huge thread on here.


Everyone must be cool with him starting?

While I've been one of Volson's biggest critics, the main reason I haven't been vocal about having him replaced is because I didn't think it was going to happen with Pollack still here.
Also, they had to worry about plenty of other positions with actual departures, mainly RT and DT.

However, if I were to put myself in the coaches' shoes, here's what I would say to defend Volson...
Ever since the last BAL game (Game 10), here were Volson's allowed number of sacks, total pressures, and PFF pass blocking grade across the final 7 games of the season:
Sacks - 1
Total Pressures - 8
PFF pass block grade - 55 pass block grade or better in every game (high of 85.5). Two of the games were in the 80's, three in the 70's.
