Our O-Line is our Achilles Heel

Even though I don’t think highly of our coaching staff, they aren’t the main issue. I think going into the season everyone knew our O-line was by far the weakest part of our team. It’s not possible for an offense to gel and have much success with such poor play up front. It’s an extremely hard obstacle to overcome. Especially when every team in the league knows this and exploits it.

I just think all of this criticism of everyone else on the team and staff has gotten out of control. Sure it would help if we had Brees out there compensating with quicker decision making and Payton exploiting more mismatches and making better adjustments, but I still believe if somehow we get a good upgrade or two up front we can be a really good team in the very near future.

Somehow it feels fans and media have lost sight of what our major concerns were coming into the season. All we are seeing is those concerns being justified.
