I mean the patriots OL isn’t very good it’s just well coached and they make adjustments. They’ve never had a loaded OL. It’s usually the coaching that benefits.

As for our OL, it still doesn’t make our OL any better at pass blocking. I know where you’re trying to go with this. O’Neill is good and Kline is decent. The other 3 are struggling quite a bit. And Rudy is also terrible at blocking.

I don’t care what the giants did vs the patriots. Just like I don’t care what the raiders DL did against KC. Our OL is not good at pass blocking. O’Neill needs to be our LT. I’ve been saying it for the past year. Either way, this is not a good sign. Teams scheme differently, adjustments are made, etc. Just because something happened in one game doesn’t mean it translates to when we play them.

That’s like saying the titans are going to be a good team because they blew out New England last year. And they are still, not a good team. Every game is different. And the giants game we played vs the giants game New England played aren’t the same. They really aren’t comparable. Teams do “surprising” things all the time. Teams upset others. Teams with a terrible pass rush might have a day against a good OL. Teams with a horrible defense might have a day against a good offense and vice versa. Every dog has its day. One week compared to season long consistency are two completely different things. Nobody is raving about the giants pass rush, but you’re trying to talk them up. Nobody raved about Oakland’s pass rush but you’re trying to talk them up. Nobody even mentions these defensive lines. You are. You do because you wanna find as much reason as you can to blame Kirk cousins for anything and everything that goes wrong with the team. Like I’ve said before, you try too hard.
I said the Raiders have an improved pass rush over last year. They have 9 sacks in 5 games versus 13 in 16 games.

I was right, you were wrong, get over it. :D
They are 26th in sacks in the nfl, that’s not a good pass rush or much of an improved one. No less last year they were dead last in sacks by 17 sacks. So congrats on saying they were “improved”, you can’t get any worse when you’re dead last (by a margin of 17 no less). That’s like saying the 2018 browns were improved compared to 2017 (when they won 0 games). Didn’t realize it took a rocket scientist to make that statement :lol: But clearly you’re proud of your statement saying a teams pass rush is improved this year when it was dead last last year. Regardless, you tried to use it to defend our OL, and it was a poor, poor try on your part

Someone said the Raiders were dead last in sacks last year, and I said they are much improved this year. They are, and could double the number of sacks from last year to this one.

How did our Oline look yesterday? Oddly enough, when the QB averages getting rid of the ball a good half second faster, they don't look so bad do they? I guess we didn't run any bootlegs or play action yesterday or take snaps from under center?
