Regarding the offense, the big elephant in the room is that this oline has fallen off. Feels like they got old overnight but in reality it's been a slow steady decline since 2016. I'm starting to see young olines around the league playing like our '14 oline. Got so much invested in this group but can't consistently run block. Also we haven't had a quality swing tackle since Parnell.

Fread the beard is not 100% Martin is playing hurt, Tyron hurt and now La'el is hurt... we were sold that we have good depth in all positions... after seeing Flemming getting beat like a wet dishrag... we in trouble... team know we can't pass or run with a weak ass offensive line.

Online looked fine when Pollard is running the ball.

When Zeke is in the game the gameplan is to still stop Zeke, so throwing for 6 yards on 1st down and running Zeke on 2nd and 4 when everybody knows Zeke is coming, ain't really beneficial. When Pollard is in the game, defenses can't/aren't selling out to stop the run.

were 3-2, b.u.t. feel like were 1-4 right now. .
we still got eagles 2x, Rams, Pats, both stout defenses of Buffalo, Chicago and 49ers.
I had us 10-6 or 11-5, now more like 8-8 or 7-9
every one got paid, and fail to show up except forLa'el and now he out for a while

we should beat the Jets, b.u.t it will mean nothing if we can't play with the big boy teams.

There was no point in that game where the OL looked fine, they got abused from beginning to end and I think Martin is more hurt than they're letting on.

1. Cobb? dropped a pass...turned into a interception
2. Hail Mary against the Saints
3. Cooper dropped a pass, turned into a inteception
4. Horrendous non call leads to a interception
