    Let's face reality here fellas, we aren't going to keep winning games, especially if we get into the playoffs, with the type of pressure our o-line is giving up on Sanchez.
    The kid holds the football like a loaf of bread and has already fumbled like 4 times. Not to mention the mistakes he will be forced into with the pressure on his ass.

    Also, TJ and Leon need to step it up.
    We all know that Rex wants to be a ground and pound offense but Jones only breaks a run if he doesn't have to break a tackle.
    Leon is Leon but we don't know how much of a pounding this kid can take throughout the course of a 16 game season with all the additional carries.
    We really have to see what Greene brings to the table. I think he could be the wildcard in our season.

    I'm sure your all gonna give me shit about this but it is a fact. Our guys gotta step it up.

    Everyone was saying the same thing about Pittsburgh's offensive line last year, that they allow Roethlisberger to get pressured too much. This is a top unit that will come together, I don't think it's worth getting too worried about just yet.

    Oh man, that was painful to watch. What did he have, 12 sacks through the first 3 games? They were either first or second in sacks allowed last season, but once they got Mewelde Moore more involved in the passing game, Ben took fewer hits. I've said it before, I'll say it again. We need to start using the plays we showed in the preseason and get Leon the ball in the passing game.

    i did a search and it did'nt show anything, asswipe.
    Guess it's because i was refering to the OFFENSIVE line and mentioned the running game also.|
    Man, some of you assholes are so tough beating up people with your keyboards.

    To be fair, the bigger concern last year, as he said, was pass protection. The running game was bad, but not abysmal. This year, they're on pace to cut the number of sacks slightly, but the running game has taken a further nosedive.

    Come on. We've had several threads about the running game this week. It's fine if you want to start your own thread about it, but don't knock the people who criticize you for cluttering the board when they use the search function.

    Again i will stress that my thread was more about the poor play of the OFFENSIVE LINE!
    The pressure on Sanchez has been rediculous even with a 4 man rush!

    The running game was an aside to the O-line woes.
    Didn't realize i couldn't mention it without the Police getting involved.:shit:

    Read those threads. Your point was made in every one of them. The point about Sanchez was made in several others. Again, you have a right to make your own thread, but don't complain when people criticize you for it. It's not the first time.
