For all you football experts that wanted Croyle...it's all about the Oline

chris · 10-07-2007, 01:32 PM

With this line, Farve, Brady, whomever, would look bad.

Forget about Croyle.

Shift your boring whining to the awful Oline.

The Packers offensive line sucks as well. They have no Pro Bowl players. Favre has been bounced a few times this year. He is, however, smart enough to make plays and has the ability to throw the ball downfield.

You can still have good QB play with a bad line.

FloridaMan88 · 10-07-2007, 01:35 PM

That is what happens when you neglect the offensive line for nearly a decade. You build the offensive line through the draft and you need to invest high-round draft picks in it.

The Chiefs haven't used a first or second round pick on an offensive linemen since John Tait back in '99. They have tried to rebuild the offensive line using washed up journeymen such as McIntosh, Turley, etc.

That isn't going to cut it.

Our QB is about as mobile as a concrete statue...

Nothing our OL can do to make Horrid any better than he is....

You do know the term of "Hermcuffing" means?

It means that Herman ****ing Edwards does a fan****ingtastic job on hermcuffing offenses since 2001.

Maybe in the PeeWee league.

You actually said something sensible.

Nobody's made any claims that the OL is any good. But, it's the only OL that we have - it's not like we have some better lineman waiting in the wings.

The same can't be said for the QB position.

Really? I've watched every Packer game (wife is from WI). Unlike last year, he has a decent line to protect him.

How many games have you watched?

kcgizmo · 10-07-2007, 01:40 PM

the oline has been doing a good job on pass defence, but now you need a QB that can find more than just one guy during the whole game, you know move the ball around, we do have a couple more players on this team, I may be wrong and Huerd is doing a great job.

ChiefaRoo · 10-07-2007, 01:40 PM

It'll all be ok once Turley gets back.

Marty Mac Ver 2.0 · 10-07-2007, 02:09 PM

Good QB play makes up for a sub par offensive line. I'm not saying they are the worst, but they ain't good. Isn't it true that no Packers RB has rushed for than 50 yards a game? Good lines are good at run blocking. The Packers have some young and talented (albeit constantly hurt) RBs.

Favre actually has RBs who block...what a novel approach for football...of gee that is a basic tenet of a good effective offense.

**Iowanian** · 10-07-2007, 02:29 PM

The offensive Line is pretty shitty.....Huard would be Shitty behind a great Oline.

We know what he is, we know he has no upside, we KNOW he isn't the future.

The team isn't going to be good, isn't going to be a contender.....Find out if Croyle can play or not.

This stretch of Home games is the perfect time to find out if the Chiefs need to draft a QB or not in 08.
