So the OL is now officially set (According to MacDonald)

[glenwo2]

Sundell is the Center. BOOM.

Who is this coach Macdonald guy? Seems like an unreliable source.

Nothing new here, our OL has been set the second we traded DK, Geno and released Lockett.

 

[sutz]

Sounds good. Let's hope they can stay healthy for a while.

I think he had a farm called E-I-E-I-O.

This is the best I've felt about our o line heading into a season in years. Injuries and Bradford better not F this up.

At first, I was trying to understand why they put Zabel on the right side of the line, then I saw Cross and realized what they did with the pic.

Just seems wrong, since they are facing us.

Yeah this looks like a legit OL.

Plus you have several young guys in the wings that can develop if given a chance down the road.

On paper that appears to be a solid OL. Not much diffetent from last year, but the extra experience and real coaching seems to have panned out (atleast through preseason).

Will be interesting to see how this unit looks as thr season unfolds.

You are correct. It is flipped.

Grey Zabel would like a word with you...


....along with a can of Busch Light.

He ALONE makes this OL far different from the one last season.

Saddest joke/truth you will ever hear...the pain is real when you have waited all year for this!

Q: What do you get when your team's GM is an alcoholic?

A: Zero combined Pro Bowls for the entire 11 offensive linemen

Don't blame Darnold if he doesn't have a great year, this is all on JS!

Great decision by coach Macdonald. Really looking forward to these guys and seeing how they gel as a group.

And, might I add, has coach been hitting the weights hard or what?? . Wow, I need a cold glass of water

What the hell are you talking about? And do you have any evidence that JS is an alcoholic? That's a pretty strong label to be throwing around.

Maybe RehireMora was a bit....tipsy...when he posted that?

(probably not true but it's a funny thought because N.E.T. ENTERTAINMENT!)

I didn't think there was much chance Bradford made the roster much less started. It appears he has put it together physically and mentally. Having Abe with a full training camp is fantastic. I believe the scheme is going to be O Line friendly. We have some solid backups. I am a little concerned about our Tackle depth. If a tackle gets hurt I feel like our best bet might be to kick Zabel outside and fill in one of our backup guards.
