I was wondering about this.  I don't remember anything happening which would make me think he needed to be pulled.  I'm very interested to hear more about this

But I thought Joe B said he was good?  
 

couldn't resist. 
 

hopefully he can turn things around 

 

Ford excelled at drive blocking... rarely saw him lose when he can square up on a defender. It has always been about the foot speed. Being able to nullify the speed rushers, and being able to effective pull from that guard positions are areas of weakness in his game and limits some of what Daboll can do with him in the run game.

 

I like the kid, but it is going to take some time for him to develop to where we need him to be... I do think offensive linemen can get into better shape and get faster under an NFL training and nutrition regimen. I am willing to give him time, but they may want to try other options from time to time.

There was nothing wrong with the line today. Josh was sacked once and, generally, had plenty of time to throw. Non-story in my opinion. Plus over 100 yards rushing.

I thought they were just moving the big guys in and out because of the heat.

 

Yeah, that was my assumption.  90 degree temp with 90% humidity - that can be tough.  

 

When I was a soldier at Fort Stewart, GA, we hated field training during 90-90 days.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Murphy mentioned this during the radio broadcast. With the heat and humidity they planned on rotating to keep guys fresh.
