You call that ignoring? https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/positional/offensive-line/ Maybe it's a Joe Burrow thing. Trying to always make a play, holding onto the ball too long, always taking hits in the pocket. Ain't nothing wrong with doing the Peyton Manning thing and just falling down when you know your about to take a sack to preserve your body.

Zeus is okay. 2-3 sacks allowed, 3 penalties, he’s fine not great. Jonah is picking up where he left off, giving up 4 sacks already which is pretty bad for a RT who usually gets help from a chip block. Considering I added “as well as their interior OL” I’m not sure what you’re saying. My point is, they’re not “morons”, and I disagree with your assessment of the line, specifically the names you mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t have it both ways. You can’t tell me that Joe Mixon is a good running back and a victim of poor offensive line play and that those OT are both good when they have mediocre pass pro production too.

Even Manning didn’t last doing that, he has to get neck surgery and that’s how he ended up in Denver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the OL in previous years were dreadful - night and day better this year. I’ve made no mention of Mixon this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 I’ve been saying, for years, that Al Michaels needs to retire. He never had it if you ask me. However, some think he was in class by himself. Well, I say he’s been in a class all by himself for quite a while. I can’t pinpoint it, he tries to hard to entertain. I think if he just called the game he would be better. He has to act like he always knows what was going to happen. I hate his “fair caught” comment. I can see the player catch the ball and not run, if I didn’t see the fair catch call itself, so I know what happened. Good old Al has to then tell you as if he alone knew what was coming. I guess it would work on radio. Don’t get me started on commenting on Al when more than one flag happens to get pulled. It’s time for Al to go. But, he’s going to stick around until they show him the door. He’s just too valuable to walk away from the game, he thinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
