Thaiphoon Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I actually think he looked pretty good. I think he's earned a spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I guess we should tell @Jlash then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreeK1973 Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 He looked good for a rookie especially. he continues to grow I can see him being our starting center for a long long time. He is proving to be a great pick so far at a position of need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostnote Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I would move Scherff to LG and Long to RG. Give me a Top 5 back side protecting the QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Lauvao looked solid in this game to. My guess is that Long won't lose his spot long term but if Long isn't 100%, Roullier will start for him week 1. At least we know we have a back up center we can rely on, that's a good feeling.

And now you know why we've been a bit hesitant to say anything. He's just there. The fact that we cannot point our finger and say "wow, he stinks" or "what was he thinking?!" is probably a point in his favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that we cannot point our finger and say "wow, he stinks" or "what was he thinking?!" is probably a point in his favor. The only negative play I saw of him was when the Bengals ran the stunt with their LDE & Atkins and Roullier helped Scherff block Atkins while Lauvao was left to block two guys and it resulted in a sack because Cousins felt the rush and took his eyes off downfield. Until our interior OL can prove they can handle stunts and blitzes up the middle we will continue to see them. This is developing as a huge problem for our offense as Cousins is getting gun shy and feels the rush each time the defense does this to us.

The problem is that it is also happening when the team fields an offensive line where each man has double digit regular season starts to his name.
