Thurman#1 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 http://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2010/...-line-rankings/ Tied for 31st. Pretty reasonable article. And for those who never understood how they evaluated players, it's very interesting. A problem is that they're going, at least partially, to a paid site. Don't think I'll join, thought I reserve the right to change my mind. I'm a bit of a hypocrite about this, because I don't joint pay sites, but I know very well that it's really hard to make a good site pay for itself with just ad revenue. And I like sites with lots of raw data, like PFF, especially data on the offensive lines, because it's almost impossible to find data on o-linemen outside PFF and Football Outsiders. And Football Outsiders allowed themselves to be bought up by ESPN to survive. Anyway, they just changed their format, and at least so far, I don't see their player by-position rankings that made them so valuable before. It's early. And maybe I just missed it. We'll see.

Lofton80 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Fair enough. Until proven otherwise, that ranking is deserved. I think schemes will help some. Gotta believe Chan will have the penalties reduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta believe Chan will have the penalties reduced. Yeah, I'd hope he'd reduce the penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Lightning Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Yeah, I'd hope he'd reduce the penalties. The article is reasonable until proven otherwise. Good news on Green. They think he can be okay if he cuts the penalies down. I just can't escape the fact that, as PTR puts it, we one 6 games with a O line of the week last year. I gotta believe we will imrprove this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 As a unit I think #31 is a fair rank. Individually we have some potential pro bowlers in Levitre and Wood. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvermike Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hmm - I'd say we're tied for 30th based on those rankings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobblehead Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 The injuries alone last year validate the ranking. The line will be better this year. Please don't confuse "better" with "great" though. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
