Philc1 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 2-TE sets is how you overcome a bad OL. Ask Brady who did not have a good OL for much of his career but he had Gronk and the murderer Aaron Hernandez lining up both in-line it helps both pass and run blocking plus the defense often cannot predict who will be used as the receiver Griffin has been a surprisingly good under the radar signing. The guy should not be forgotten once Herndon finally is back which is next week. I want both at full time snaps 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibby Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 My son and I said the same thing yesterday. Although ( full transparency) we never used the words “ save our season” no saving this sh*t show. I’ll settle for a competitive team week to week. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New York Mick Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 A lot of the board has been saying this. Bring in another TE and use him as a FB/TE. The oline can’t block anyone, Jax lived in the backfield yesterday. They consistently got pressure up the middle forcing Darnold to move outside into Campbell, Nga and Allen. There was numerous plays where the oline didn’t even touch or slow down the passrushers. It’s not rocket science. They were moving the ball when they gave Darnold time. If you can’t block with the oline bring in a TE/FB to help. Bell looks frustrated as hell as well. He’s getting mauled. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry McCockinner Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Don't worry guys - our offensive wizard head coach will figure it out soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgb Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I would like interesting football and a better read on who Sam is/can be by the end of the year. We are dangerously close to the „well we can’t evaluate him appropriately because of garbage surrounding cast” carousel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Totally agree, hopefully Gase does as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetFaninMI Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Normally I'd agree with the topic but when the OL is this bad I don't think any amount of TE's will help. They need to get younger and more talented at each position on this OL. That unfortunately will not happen overnight as we all know and its going to be a rough rest of the season if the Line play doesn't step it up.

kmnj Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 they cant save our season-our season was over the day it started when they hired gase on a positive note i played tons of Griffin on fanduel at min price at .5% ownership and my pockets are heavy today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Griffin is nothing special and he is looking good out there. The herndon thing really hurt this team. With the oline we have tresco should be in there at least half the time for better protection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section314 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I know it was a Macc draft pick, and that kind of answers my own question, but what is up with this Wesco tool? Wasn't this a**hole drafted because he was a great blocker? The only time you even know this guy is in the game is when he gets his weekly specials penalty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah ok he’s not the GOAT at the tight end position but he is going to be a good to very good all around TE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
