On paper, this OL should be damn near dominant, but I'm personally trying to factor in the previous few years' worth of history that maybe this OL won't be.
I want to see them in action the first month or even two before I really feel the OL is ready to even be considered average, let alone above average.
Yes, some might consider me pessimistic, but how can I not be after seeing this OL underperform for the past 4+ years despite adding player after player after player?
This is me as well
I want to believe this will be the best Oline Joe has had. However, until I see it on the field I'm not going to be all rah-rah. I'm also hoping the 1st team Oline does at least a couple series in pre-season. I'm just not a fan of starting the season cold turkey.
