brown had a down year and he is a little overrated , too. ( so is the complete line , we as saints fans knew it already ,the rest just watching the low sack numbers )
but stinchie , while isnt real old or washed up , seems to me at the end of his talentlevel. he has no natural aggressiveness , gets often outrun and outpushed. is more of a second level blocker like most of our OLinemen. there were a few screens and short passes where he had real good blocks on a LB or safety , but other than that it seems that he consistently gets pushed around and fails to get good execution on running plays.
he is a little like kwame harris only with interchanged strengths and weaknesses , i wouldnt regret if we replace him and nesbit now and faine the next year.
and dont forget : he had a slow start in his career for a reason and in my opinion he got the job because of lack in the alternatives.
