I must be. One of you guys who knows far more about zone blocking OL than me has been all in on Brunskill. On another note back to the guys that know more than me about this stuff, could MM be kicked inside a la Alex Boone? Or is that wishful thinking?
Ah, okdkid was leading the fan club.
McGlinchey is 6'9" so that makes it challenging. He's better on the move on the edges. If you push him inside, him getting pancaked will happen even more frequently than it does already.
He had the same kind of injections Dee Ford had in his knee. Given h oi w skinny he still is, my guess is his knee is shot and the weight loss was a tactical move to eliminate some of the stress on his knee. That, or his knee is fine now but he was never able to work out and build that muscle and size back up.
The truth is, he's an average at best to below average pass protector but elite run blocker and that's a Kyle staple. That's not going to change so Kyle better scrap the classic pocket QB and add some more mobility.
