WWL said it best last night. We are spoiled at O line play. Evans and Nicks are arguably the best guard duo in the history of the NFL and a situation you get once in a lifetime. Our expectations can't be those 2 guys. Most NFL teams have one or two great O lineman and the rest are serviceable. You can't afford to pay 5 O lineman the money you are paying Unger and Armstead plus have a hall of fame QB, 2 number 1 receivers and a top TE and 2 high paid RBs. It's impossible so you build an offense around what you have and when the regular season comes you adjust scheme to protect against your weakness.
In today's salary cap age we can't have an all pro at every position. You can't have 11 all pros on O and neglect your D. We've been there before! We are putting puzzle pieces in place to be consistent on both sides and to do that you will have serviceable players at some positions. Now it's up to the coaching staff to put those players in a place to succeed.
