If I have to watch McQuistan try to play this position for one more game, I'm going to lose it. He is worse than the 7th round rookie on the other side.

How can we not have a backup for Okung who has actually played the position before???

I agree. We are winning in spite of our o-line play, not because of it.

And where does that happen? Left Tackles R Us? Left Tackle Mart? O-Line City?

Yeah, and the streets are just teeming with veteran LT's with quality pass blocking skills just waiting to be signed.

Get real.

Anyone is better than McQ and Bowie right now.

Pat McQuistan sounds good. Paul on one side Pat on the other!

It's funny that nobody heard Gruden say that good to great Oline play is pretty rare in the NFL.
And then of course the other cat said...'What about the Broncos?'
He had a point, they are playing with back up tackles.
But...The point is you can't just go out and find better guys that aren't playing somewhere else.
I'm sure Pete and John have been looking.
But 'who' for example?

They should give Jeff Otah a workout. He couldn't possibly be worse than Ginger, even with a bum knee.

Lets be rational here. There is some "ok" talent here. Maybe sign a guy or two, doesnt have to be from this list. Maybe we trade but this whole end of the world attitude is annoying.

Monroe was literally being shopped by the Jags (you know, our friendly trading partner?) and we stupidly overlooked it.

If we end up missing a SB this year because of the tackles, I am going to blame FO for missing out on a fire sale for a top 15 OL.

Yeah salary cap, whatever. He was a FA end of the year, a rental but worth it and frankly in a year you are shooting to win it all you don't pinch pennies. You rob from tomorrow to win today. Sure it is a risk but the other side is to end up like the Mariners always trying to keep yourself good for tomorrow but never ever winning now. (And not being good tomorrow either).

Good teams get bad. That is why you sometimes have to go all in. I am really pissed we missed out on that.

I would be shocked if we didnt get a least one new body in this week to compete...

Dont know if he will be any better, but given Pete/John's track record, I think they will try something
