Would I of liked for them to do more in the Offseason to invest in the OL? Of course, but a new OL coach could certainly help as Pollack
couldn't coach anyone up and even proven FA's regressed under his coaching. Lucas Patrick and Dylan Fairchild have been known to be
good pass protectors and are much more athletic than what we had last year and stay lower in their sets.
We will see how much better the OL is this year. I expect it to be better, I just don't know how much better.

Pollack's philosophy just didn't work, especially for our offense. His "glass eaters" BS was outdated, and we tried for years to make it work with physically overmatched players that had "grit" and "want to". It was especially mismatched with an offense that wanted to run a lot of wide zone, which requires more athletic linemen capable of making reach blocks and second level blocks.
Spot on.
