That's why you don't give up on young OL guys until year 3. It's rare a guy can figure it out in his first year from college. The offences are so different in college. Pass rushers are so much more polished in the NFL.
Some guys take a while. I think Ifedi is finally starting to get it. It took Britt, Sweezy, Brown and Fluker all 3 years to become decent to good. To a man they alll sucked as rookies.
You'd think we as fans would learn when this story plays out over and over again.
Boy....you love to "blame the fans" for pretty much everything huh? I'll bet all those other players lead the entire NFL in penalties that killed drive after drive too huh? :roll:
Give me a break. Ifedi flat out sucked and hurt the team over and over again 2+ years. That he is coming around now is great news, but don't think that getting him away from Cable wasn't a big part of that. We saw Cable even adversely effect seasoned vets like Brown, and that was hard to do.

Good Lawd Seymour, You have to admit that there are more than a couple of folk in here that lambasted the living shit out of Ifedi since he got here.....They like to CLAIM that THEY know something that even Pete Carroll isn't aware of.
A lot of them calling a complete BUST, and for him to be sent packing....Like they KNOW HOW IT ALL ENDS, so they don't even bother to read "The Rest Of The Story".
Tom Cable was probably the WORST O-Line Coach that Germaine Ifedi could have had.
Yes, I realize that you called that, but in GI's defense, Tom Cable got his ass canned (in part) for not helping Ifedi even reach mediocrity.
I'm happy that they canned Cable instead of sending Ifedi off to some Coach on another team, that KNOWS HOW to maximize his potential.
