Uhh, the fact that he's constantly having to run away from pressure and taking a ton of hits?
[Reply]

He's getting hit a little too much sure.

He's also been blitzed alot and just played the best set of pass rushers in the NFL.

You guys realize the other guys get paid too right?

They had 1 sack last night and we're bitching?

Trade Jones?

wtf? We're only supposed to have takes this retarded when we're emotional after a loss, not the following morning after a win.
[Reply]

Well, yeah, but when the putz at LT is demanding to be the highest paid OL in the league there are expectations that he performs at least above replacement level, which hasn't happened these first couple games.

Willie Roaf is on ESPN radio right now. Said the tackles played well last night. Said Bosa is a stud and they handled him well. CP morons proven wrong once again
[Reply]

Didn't Creed (who gave up 1 sack all of last year) give up the sack last night?

Pressures aren't good, but when you give up only 1 sack to the defensive line the Chargers have, that's a win.
[Reply]

Uhh, he's been taking a lot of hard hits for years (most QB's do - including Herbert last night), and last night he was facing the best DE combo in the NFL (maybe the Best D in the NFL). If we could find a way to run the gdamn ball, it'd certainly make it less obvious what we have to do in order to get 1st downs.

Look, I wish we had 2 All Pro's at both Tackle spots, but we don't. OB is more than serviceable at LT. Do I want to overpay for OB? No, but we could very well find ourselves in that spot if we don't have better options.

Cameron Erving isn't above replacement level, dude. Orlando Brown as much as you hate his guts isn't Cameron Erving-level bad.

Allowing some pressures against those edge rushers last night isn't good, but it should be understandable provided he doesn't look like that against slapdicks.
[Reply]

That's the problem that folks keep glossing over. He DID look that bad against slapdicks in Arizona. 7 pressures given up that game against a team with a dearth of talent.
[Reply]

Let's just play this game. We let OB walk after this year - now what?
[Reply]

Have enough faith in Veach to find a better solution than paying Brown if he doesn't improve quickly.
[Reply]

No, no, fucking no.
[Reply]

Which is why I love Veach so much.

He doesn’t give that extra bit to get a deal done. He’s really coming into his own and paying guys what they’re realistically worth.

Great GM.

Brown is fine. Just fine. Shouldn’t be paid like the best OT in football and won’t be (at least not by us). Tag and trade in the offseason.

Let Veach cook with even more draft capital.
[Reply]

We spent a 1st round pick on a LT, and 2 years later we're going to spend another 1st round pick on a LT?
[Reply]

Then Roaf is blind.
