You still think we're going 11-6 with an average OL?

I mean we've gone to SBs and won a s**t load of games with an "avg" OL lol

Exactly.

Technically, at least according to NCommand's opinion those weren't "avg" OL, but way below average OL.

Anyway, prediction is hard this season because we don't know who good Trey Lance is.

A good sight for the 49ers today, as Mike McGlinchey was back in pads at the beginning of practice.

That's good. I feel a ton better about this o-line if both starting tackles are in the lineup than if either of them is out. Swing tackle is a huge problem if the Houston game is an indication of what to expect.

Agreed. This could be great news going into the season. Hopefully he has no more setbacks.

Yup. They did say they'd ramp him up this week to test his pain level. If he can get through this week we've got a shot at week 1. If not, well.

It is weird you made definitive statement that he is a guard and not tackle solely based on your assessment.

He's currently playing OG this off season in Chicago. Plenty of draft evaluators said his best spot in the NFL is inside.

Sure, but I have told you many times, I think you drastically under estimate how many lines around the league are average or worse. We all want greatness at every position but bad line play is actually the baseline norm for the NFL, being good is the outlier.

We really came a far way with MM. He was ridiculed for so long, but now he's viewed as a savior.

The key point you two keep dismissing or retaining or are not getting is these weren't "average" OL's. They were horrendous in the playoffs. If you want to win lots of games you can get buy with an average OL. If you actually want to have a shot at a title, you need FAR better than what we've been rolling out there NO MATTER THE QB.

Understand?

All we can do is hope at this point.

No one is calling him a savior but when compared to guys like Moore and Mckivitz he looks pretty good

The top OL's are still winning Superbowls though so despite a perceived drop in talent around the league, it's irrelevant to the winning formula.

Keep stacking talent until you reach the standard. Give us the best shot.

Disagree completely.

Did you mean we had no shot at the title back in 2019 and 2022 season? Really? LOL.

They are when their QB makes up for their poor play like Stafford did
