This year, on the offensive side of the ball, we've patched some holes and drafted a kid who's playing out of his traditional position. We've moved the Big Apple to RT and he's stated publicly it's not his forte. RG is still a question mark as is Center.
Defensively, we've moved Hali to the right side - a position he's obviously uncomfortable in and we're playing a DT on the left side and hoping for the best. Tank and Turk are taking turns falling down which is good if they happen to do it on a quarterback.
I don't see Herm's ability to create or commitment to field lines that allow us to progress in other areas with consistency. Do you?

How much of that also has to be put on the shoulders of Tim Krumrie? At some point in time the guy has to chime in and say look....these guys are out of position....move them back.
