Not much time to post.....was running through last game and Slauson was hot garbage. For example...He was the root cause of Greene's fumble (other than Greene himself obviously). Slauson's guy grove him back 5 yards.....I think it was Anderson.
You completely missed the point. It's not that these were bad moves-on the whole they were probably good moves-it's that Rex praised the hell out of these guys in public but then dumps them because they're not good enough/too expensive/primma donnas or whatever. The players love Ryan for a lot of reasons, including that he stands up for them in public. But don't think for a second that he actually believes it every time he says something like Joey McKnight is about to explode.
Imagine what Mario Williams would have done to Ducasse. End of story! Hunter will be our RT and do well.
Of course Slauson was playing on a gimpy knee and still played fairly well except for his haters. Brick also had aweak game against Willoiams. Woody struggled as well. Moore was replaced by Turner for a few snaps. We got manhandled but lets put all the blame on Slauson.
The whole O line was garbage most of that game. The word the comms team used was 'sporadic' which I think was kind. I lost track how many times Nacho didn't even have time to set his feet. Loads and loads of blown assignments. Callahan has rightly had many plaudits here on TGG, but he better get this shit sorted out or we're going to see Brunell finish the season. Oline - C, at very best.
Rex raves about anybody... it seems like Gholston and McKnight are the biggest contributors on this team if you believe every word he says. It's good thing he does that because it's a motivational boost for the guys... but fans can't believe everything that comes out of Rex mouth!
