Secondary will cost us #6

Dawand Jones on the Browns is 6'8" and was a two sport athlete in college, fast for a man that large. He was taken in the 4th round by Cleveland why did we not look at him. He just dominated Watt on a pass play during the MNF game. We could have had him.

The line did play better but there were some decent o line prospects out there.

The FO probably thought he was too large but if they paid attention he played on his college basketball team so was a all around good athlete.

Obviously did not look at the o line at all in this years draft.

I see a slow plodding lineman that Watt torched for a sack. We had that guy in Trenton Brown.

Steelers are absolutely torching the Browns O line. If not for the Browns RB making a hell of a play the Browns would have very little to show on offense.

Are you watching? Watt has not done squat against him. He's already doing better than McKivitz as a rookie against Watt.

What you talking about? Watt smoked him for a sack of Watson. Beaten him a couple other times. He's been ok when hes had help.

If the 9er want to add to their tackle group add Collins when he gets healthy.

Watson is running for his life. 6 sacks. Multiple pressures. Steelers D won them the game.

Kenny Pickett is still broken so I will take that.

If you watched the 3rd, 4th Qtr he contained him and pancaked him twice. I did not record the game so did not see the sack. He's a rookie so he could have gotten beat before I was watching.

Troy introduced him in the 3rd but he may have played the first half do not know. Wife was bugging me to do chores but caught the 2nd half.

From what I saw he was very good and better than McKivitz against Watt. With experience he may be a good RT in the future. A little slow after contact but will improve on that.

It's amazing how these weaknesses cost us but no one else, as if other teams units have no holes.

Agree. I took a look at his scouting profile. Not particularly agile or athletic, which is what Kyle needs in the zone runs. Big guy, for sure, but like you said - he's another Trenton Brown that limited Kyle's offense back in 2017.

exactly, we don't need to be the best. just need to be better than the other team that day

I would agree. But when you look at why we have lost the big games we have secondary and QB have been far bigger issues. Yet year after year it's the same prediction that the O line is the only weakness and the direct cause of everything.

one position can't be the sole reason or to blame. sometimes both teams can have the same issues that far into the season, but both teams can't lose

I am glad they won. That way noone can say that the ass whooping we gave them was a fluke.

how good is the Rams Oline?

It depends on how they play that week. Tiers change every week, B

Yup. Changes every week depending solely on feels.

Only PFF changes grades d/t public pressure.

I don't give a s**t about ppf grades. Now if you have another site that provides pressure rates, pressure passing splits, TTT under pressure, etc. I'm all ears. Because those stats mean more to me than anything you have ever provided on this forum.

I've provided real SME's. If you don't collectively believe their film work, study and tier system and proven outcomes and reputation, that's up to you. For a man that bets on the trenches, I'd figure you'd be all over their work and OL vs. DL weekly matchups.

If you're into mico stats for the OL, that's fine. Post away.

I don't really care about rankings. I have said this several times. Do I post rankings? Sure. But you use that against me as if you provide anything other than rankings. Which you haven't. I actually provide a whole lot of other things besides rankings. I also source my stuff from many different sites. Which I have listed many times on here. Its not my fault that pff has the best in depth stats when it comes to QB and O line efficiency. You just choose to ignore it because it doesn't fit the narrative that you strive so hard to hold onto.

I am actually very flexible in my opinion so long as there is actual evidence to back it up. Why would I use your source when your source claimed KC's O line was tier 1 last year when there is overwhelming evidence to the contrary?

The evidence is their tiers have all ended in those very teams being in and winning Superbowls. That combination of tier 1 OL + tier 1 QB is deadly. This shouldn't be shocking news to anybody.

It's easy to get lost in mirco data and miss the bigger picture. It's still football.

Protect the QB. Disrupt the QB. Pass the ball. Defend the ball.

Just because a team won the SB doesn't mean that their O line was tier one. That is the narrative that you keep trying to drive. It took you like 2+ years to find a source that backed up your narrative. Now you are holding onto it for dear life.

See, I have no narrative. I can recognize that our O line, especially the right side is a weak link. I have no problem saying that. The stats as well as the eye test have shown that. I watched those KC playoff games and looked up KC's pass pro stats. They were nowhere near at the level the eagles O line was last season or in the playoffs. And anyone who says otherwise is just not credible imo.

Haha, you mean 2 days. I had to sift through the world of X to find it for you too.

Your narrative is clear: QB can transcend a tier 2+ OL and win a Superbowl.

That's why you've worked so hard to dismiss KC's tier 1 OL.

I'd much rather let the SME's do their job and focus on us getting a tier 1 OL for the first time in a dynasty so that we can see even more how special Brock and Kyle can be together with a wide open offense and not how to work around not having one.

Funny because you are the only poster in here who believes that KC's O line was great last season. KC's O line gave up a higher pressure rate in the 2022 playoffs than the 49ers O line did in the 2021 playoffs. So is it the QB or is it the O line? No other QB had close to the amount of scrambles that Mahomes had in the playoffs last year. That should tell you something. So yes, Mahomes is able to transcend a tier 2-3 O line and Jimmy isn't and that was the ultimate difference between winning a SB and not winning a SB. Just like Philly has a tier 2-3 QB and a Tier 1 O line but lost the SB to a tier 1 QB with a tier 2-3 O line.

When Mahomes lost the SB, he was running for his life behind a tier 6 O line and no QB can transcend that.

LOL. See, told you.

That's your bias. That's what drives you on this topic.

5 fans in the WZ are the only ones who didn't think KC had a tier 1 OL last year.

But that all comes down to the bold in here for those 5. Patrick Mahomes-envy. And I'm sorry to say, Chief's aren't winning the Superbowl this year.

And we already know why.

LMAO. So then they lose 30-31.

Part of the drops are because he's running around like a chicken with his head cut off trying to play hero ball and nobody knows what the eff he's doing. That's what pressure causes. There's no good pressure.
