O-line shuffle idea

[Ethan in Cleveland]

I'd advocate trying the following O-line for a few series at least and see what happens.

 

LT - Brown

LG - Dawkins

C - Morse

RG - Boettger

RT - Williams

 

There is no PS player that is going to save this situation.  What do you all think of this idea.  Williams is a much better RT than a guard.   Brown looks capable of playing OT in the NFL.  Dawkins is good but not elite at LT.  The current guards are turnstiles and can't move or block anyone.  Morse is what he is.  He's solidly above average pass blocker and poor run blocker.  Ford is just a massive bust.  Bates is a tease.  He is probably not capable of playing any position for any length of time but he is a good game-day injury option that can back-up all five spots.

There unfortunately isn't a fix .

 

I think sadly the best option is:

 

LT- Dawkins

LG- Feliciano

C- Morse

RG- Williams

RT- Brown.

 

Not saying that's ideal, but I think it's their "best" option for this year.

 

Need a big change in the off season.

Probably not but it's worth a try

Not sure what the advanced stats say but Dawkins has had a number of awful plays this year.  

 

Largely the same players last year created nice pockets for Josh for much of last year.....I am somewhat optimistic they can straighten things out some.

The Tennessee 4th&1 Dawkins missed his block so DE stuffed Allen

Felciano

Morse

Wiliams are not starting the better

Actually the DE and Dawkins stuffed Allen.  He literallly blew his ass right into Allen.....from LT!

You forgot Dawkins. He has been awful as well.

He isn’t going to be healthy all year after his COVID. That is what is is.   I know a lot of people want to ignore the issues he had with it and the weight loss and strength. Isn’t going to be himself again until next year. 
 

the other three don’t even need to be on this team

Lets move our franchise left tackle to Center, put Tommy Sweeney at left tackle because he’s agile, put an injured Feliciano in at Center also, then flip Bottegar with Feliciano because position flexibility. Problem solved.

I think they should just fire Bobby Johnson and draft 2 interior OL this draft.

I’m tired of the Covid excuse. He has been and always will be mediocre. Average doesn’t cut it when you have a 250 million $ QB

[Aussie Joe]

I predict that Feliciano, Morse, Ford and Boettger are not on this team next year...

 

Williams needs to improve to get paid $8m again next year...

Sorry you don’t like the legit fact. And he hasn’t been AVG but ok

If it is a legit fact, which is odd because nothing has been mentioned about his poor performance due to Covid before, then he doesn’t need to be suiting up and playing. 

[Governor]

Now you guys are with me. Where were you 6 weeks ago when I got slaughtered on Reddit for saying the same thing? Lol.

 

The Cover 1 guy shrieked in horror that someone could possibly say we needed a change at LT.

 

Maybe that blind side hit today that almost ripped Josh in half will change his mind.

I think you have to sit Dawkins.  It looks to me that he has not really recovered from his bout with Covid.  I would give our other rookie T a shot at RT or Douglas and move Williams back inside once Brown comes back.  But they have to shake it up; they can’t accept the level of play seen today.

As mentioned above, we need new ol coaching

It was talked about very early that he wasn’t going to be himself. And sorry what do you want him to come out and say I played bad because I am down 30 lbs and weaker?

 

and I don’t know Ask McD why he isn’t sitting him. I mean hell while you at it ask him why he keeps trotting ford out there
