This isn’t an all star team. It’s just a regular team. Sometimes every single one of the players on your team isn’t a super star.
So this should give us PTSD. We actually robbed ourselves of having our first Super Bowl by complete negligence walking into the season with holes and injuries just exposed that we had to start the worst OL in SB history. Adequate blocking on one play, let alone a handful of plays wins it.
We know you can't put stats everywhere but Cappa was supposed to be part of the solution and he wasn't. I think I'd rather have a hole at another spot than have holes at BOTH guards. Patrick helps, Ford may be a 6th man but downplaying the need for improved OL play shouldn't bring us back to referencing the abomination of a position group that took a ring from us. We also just assume the tackles will carry us even with bad guard play and an aging center. Can you imagine one being hurt while Ford is already a guard?
