Priefer is solid - Giants had #1 Special teams in the league last year (according to foxsports.net)

EDIT: They actually finished the season at #10. My bad.

Blackmon looks to be a good pickup - Bills have had good LB play over the past couple of years IIRC.

Not too sure about Matsko. Rams o-Line as been shaky AT BEST over the past 2-3 seasons.

Here's to hoping you are correct

I could coach our O-line to a high level.

A one-eyed frog could coach 2 HOFers / 3 All-Pros / 4 Pro Bowl (caliber) players to great things.

I am more concerned with developing our younger talent. I don't want to have a blackhole at the tackle position when Roaf retires.

I swear to the misty heavens on high that I wish we had a one-eyed frog as an assistant coach.

That would be awesome!!

He could teach our o-line to jump out of their stances and wrap their sticky long tounges around opposing linebackers!!!

Or, would that be holding?

This thread is suddenly cast into the Zappa song, "Frogs with Dirty Little Lips".

I think it would probably fall under the category of "offensive tounging".

15 yards and loss of down.

I don't know anything about this guy, but it is interesting how the Rams' offense has come back down to earth. I think it was best in 00 and 01 (after Vermeil left), and it has been downhill since then. My guess would be that the offensive line. Or maybe Bulger isn't as good as Warner was in his prime. Or maybe Martz lost the team. Something happened.

My first reaction on the o-line coach is the same as everyone else's.

On further reflection, they don't have a true fullback at all and they certainly don't have a blocking tight end to match Jason Dunn.

Having a good lead blocker like those two can cure a world of ailments. And lets not forgot how bad the Chiefs o-line got when Roaf went down this year.

We'll know how good he is when we see if big Willie and Big Will up an retire this year. If they stick around, you can be sure Blackmon has their respect. They won't stay for somebody they don't think will get them some mileage.

It's probably pretty simple, Vermeil believes in running the ball and winning the turnover battle. Martz doesn't, at all. You can't turn the ball over and win football games consistently.
