“(The line is) not a concern. We know all areas of our team, particularly the offensive group, have to do a better job of protecting our quarterback and that comes from every person and every position group on the offense,” Lewis said. “(Protecting the passer) is always a priority. It’s never changed. It just doesn’t fall on the line. It falls on everybody.”
IMO, the O-line is the #1 concern at the moment, especially with it looking like Z is gone for sure and the uncertainty with Whit's situation. We could be looking at some major holes/questions on the O-line, not to mention Bodine is still the starting center.
Of course, things could change quickly and everything might look a little better, but as it stands right now, I think the O-line is big reason for concern.
Well, the O-line is the start all of the offensive group. It starts in the trenches. I know that TE's and RB's have to
block as well but the line is #1. They have to give the QB time and open up holes in the running game. Without
Whitworth our QB will be a sitting duck. No point in thinking about any other area of our team.
If you don't build your foundation strong you are screwed.
If you don't think the safety of your Franchise QB is a concern you are a frickin' idiot.
