Are we the only two that think Tiller should already be on the team? And he should be starting ahead of both fusco and beadles? True we haven't seen him in 8 months, but last time we did, playing next to Trenton, he played well. Not so so but well. He didn't play as well on the L side though. Kyle needs to look at his work on R side. That was impressive. We got horrible production from our two OGs 6 days ago. Rated right at bottom of PFF...but we didn't need PFF to tell us that. They just stunk up the field and Tiller last yr, played well. As well as i like the picks that kyle and john have made, the "upgrades" they brot in, Zut, Fusco, Barnes....well, they were less than desirable. Loved Magnus, Darrell williams JR. and Laken we don't know about other than he busted out of Detroit. The experienced OLs they brot in? To date, have been really disappointing. Hope Laken doesn't fall into that category. We are due for a change in our luck. So far been bad with experienced OLs. Time for luck to change. And yes i am saying the beads for Laken to come thru.
Doc, here's my hope. I hope Kyle sees something in Killgore and Beadles and the other starting guard (I forget the name) and the reason I say this is because Kyle's turned around the careers of quite a few no name O Linemen and made them look good in this scheme. I think they are starting because somehow, he thinks he can make them better than what they looked like against the Panthers. Personally, I don't hold much hope for what I've just said, but I think that's the current thought in Kyle's mind right now - and that may be one reason Tiller isn't here.
More than a couple of zone run's I think Hyde just took the wrong track. Even that play where Beadel's gets blown up by either Lotulelie or the other all world DT, I'm thinking Hyde would have gotten 5+ yards if he saw and knew that Beadles would get overwhelmed and play off that with a cutback to the back side of the run. Looking at Killgore and Beadles, if the RB can just give them some help and help the O Linemen gain the leverage he needs to cut back I think even with Killgore and Beadles, this offensive line can be serviceable. Even without William's speed, I think Hylde can power through the backside of the run for significant gains if he just cut back and not keep thinking this is a power run team.
