This is what I would expect an emergency 4th tackle to perform, which is well below average.
The reason I was chiming in so much on Ford was because of the proposal to try to find another starting spot for him once OBJ was back.
He's not good enough to get a starting spot once OBJ is back, even over Volson and Cappa.
If I was to do anything, I'd look to try to either see if Matt Lee could be ok playing one of the OG spots or shift Karras to LG, bench Volson, and have Lee cover C.
We are, if someone told me we should start Ford I'd say no way. But, I do think he deserves praise for coming in and playing as well as he has when he is a fringe roster guy.
