This

I would've agreed but not after the Washington game he got pushed around so badly and he was missing blocks all day

So surprisingly, I don't concur

Between Skule and Moseley - got to give it to Skule.
Skule has been better than any of us dreamt of and well done to the man. He has been relatively the most valuable player since he has filled in for a crucial position and a legendary 9er. But for me it's E-Man, since he has helped solidify what is rapidly becoming the best D in the league. He is the absolute MVP of the subs coming in since he has helped with such a tremendous D.
I would give it to Moseley. Mainly because the D hasn't had to adjust in order to compensate for the loss of Witherspoon. As where with the O line, we have been heavy run and dink and dunk in the passing game to compensate for the drop off in pass pro.

Was reading through the thread waiting for someone to make this point, and was going to make it myself if someone hadn't.

Fully agreed.

If they were shading coverages over to Eman's side all the time because they didn't trust him to cover his responsibility by himself and changing up their defensive scheme to protect him I wouldn't be that impressed by him. But they're not. They are doing that for Skule, though.
Can I be a Homer and give them all A+? Kinda hard to pick right now being I am in full Homer mode with the Niners. Lol. Come on Sunday.
I say let Staley rest one more week, Skule has been playing admirable.
I didn't vote because I can't decide between Mosely and Skule... f**k. Moseley can make plays and anyone can see it, but o-lineman don't get any flashy stats or enough credit. and the fact we haven't heard Skule's name almost ever means he's doing a solid job.
I think E Man has played better but yes I agree I would give to skule because LT is such an important position. We've rarely heard his name and only has a few penalties
It's a tie! Outside of QB the next two hardest positions to play are backside OT and press corner, Skule and E-Man have stepped up way beyond expectations
Not enough respect to Dwelley who had to learn a new position in a week and looked damn good. While everyone on the list has looked really good what Ross has done is pretty remarkable.
