Can you explain this from a scheme perspective?

Simple. Better players in a scheme, improve the scheme's execution.

it is staring them in the face, and they can't see it.
Which ProBowl OL was readily available to go get this off-season?

The ones that ignore every position group as if they needed zero help? They are absolutely stubborn.

We've replaced a number of guys on offense with Pro-Bowl caliber players. Just trying to understand your point about the 1 extra offensive-lineman?
All you've got so far is "better players improve the offense." I mean,...everyone knows that already. I want to hear about the unstoppability with the 1 extra player, scheme-wise?

T MIKE ONWENU, G KEVIN DOTSON, G ROBERT HUNT,G KEVIN ZEITLER,. T MEKHI BECTON,G EZRA CLEVELAND,to name a few and before you go off that they aren't probowlers, they have potential to improve our offensive line considerably especially playing alongside T TRENT WILLIAMS.
It would be up to our coaches to coach them to pro bowl status but at least we should be trying to improve our offensive line.
We didn't even draft for the offensive line in the first few rounds when everyone was screaming out for improvement on this unit who can't even lay a finger on Chris jones on the most important play of our year.

Why does Shannahan and Lynch not think the offensive line is important?
Ben Bartch, Brandon Parker, Briason Mays, just to name a few of the elite talent they snatched out of nowhere
Are you not ENTERTAINED!?

Anyone would be better than the OG who couldn't see Chris Jones standing Infront of him.

So we are just listing names now.
Chris Hubbard has had a better NFL career than either Onwenu or Becton.

It's not a list of names.
It's the idea and I'll talk slowly for those of you who struggle a bit.
It's the idea that we can improve our offensive line with better players either through drafting or free agency.
I know that is a holistic idea and some of you can only function in the most binary manner but just sit back and let it slowly sink in.
We could either draft or trade or get through free agency - better players than we have on the offensive line.

it's a lame idea.. and just a list of names.
Strengthening one position is weakening another. Say we spent everything on OL, then we have no skill players. then your lame idea is saying we don't invest in skill players.

you are just arguing for the sake of arguing.
I'd rather have Kermit the frog on a lily pad singing Rainbow Connection playing Offensive Guard than Spencer Burford.
Why are there so many songs about blown offensive guard assignments and how they cost teams Super bowls?"

How many times are you going to repeat the same exact opinion with no added context? I threw you a layup to expand, but you dodged it.
Why stick to repeating the same 1-liners? Just dont quite get the gist. You dont approve of the OLine. Okay.
