RandyMossIsBoss Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Wow last thing I heard the ACL was spared. This is such a brutal loss for us. He was playing as good as he was a few years ago, all-pro level for sure. Definitely the #1 reason our OL was looking like one of the best. I feel like we're cursed, poised to have such a great year and then we lose our 4th most valuable player behind Elliott, Wentz and Cox Scoreboard may have been 34-24 in our favor, but we took a big fat L last night.

Broadway Joe Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 It seems Vaitai looked more comfortable af LT than RT. Then again he settled nicely last year at RT after the embarrassing game against the Redskins. Im not sure I want to move Lane to LT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBreezy Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 We're going to miss this dude. HOF player and an absolute beast still. Hopefully Big V is ready.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But def need to bring another T in. Keep LJ at RT though. Yep, why move the Best RT in the NFL just to create a problem over there? Leave V and help!

Jeezla Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Did Lane practice at LT today? Did we even practice today? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Robinson looked like the worst CB in the NFL in the preseason. Maybe Lane just needs reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has nothing to do with how he looked in the Preseason but everything to do with How Dominate he is as a RT. Why weaken that side with Big V and possibly the same at LT with Lane having to Switch/Adapt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phire Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 If we switch Lane I think it'll be after the BYE. Who knows at this point though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonu62882 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I understand about not messing with 2 spots but the counterpoint to that is that Lane is our best lineman and should be protecting “Orange Clutch” aka “Pumpkin Jesus” aka “Can’t Pass the Eye Test” Wentz. At least, if Big V is on the right side, Carson has a better chance at seeing if/when protection breaks down and can move/escape accordingly. Losing the blindside can obviously also lead to more turnovers, which should be taken into account. I think I would try V out at LT and if he Winston Justices it against the Niners, I think you gotta move Lane there. After all, wasn’t that the plan all along?

Nabbs4u Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Lane brought up a good point. Coming up are Lawrence (sack leader) and Von Miller both from the RT side. Trying to "hide" Big V over there would be a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
