[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 734110, member: 265"] I did too, but that may have been because our opponents weren't as stout. I think the big thing now is to find 7 OLs who can play and [I]have them avoid injury long enough to learn to play as a unit[/I]. I'm an old (very) OL myself and I can testify to the vastly increased efficiency of blocking when everyone knows their responsibilities and the strengths and weaknesses of their teammates. The people who benefit the most from this are a) the QB because he has a better sense of what plays will work and how to run them and b) the OC who has a better idea of what to call. It's the same with other areas of the game, of course; more experience working with each other = better play. But this is, imho, especially important in the OL. Depth is important, but the main thing is keeping that 7 man unit that sees the field most of the time healthy. If we can do that, so much the better. [/QUOTE]
