[QUOTE="33jacket, post: 36412, member: 628"] but if the OL is as bad blocking as they were this past year, and they were serviceable...then i dont' think it matters to be elite especially in the passing game. Reads are important, only if the guys your are reading off of are blocked. If the scheme calls to read one in space, but now you have to deal with two because the OL whiffed on a block...it doesn't matter how elite you are, the play is dead. We saw this a ton this year. In our offense an elite OL road grades people, and if you just have a guy like Tevin, serviceable...your explosion plays come from the option and up front...you don't even need to pass, just make the conservative serviceable read and you are good. Also, with an elite OL reads become more consistent for the QB...because he knows what to expect due to proper OL execution...it makes the QB's job MUCH easier...So in turn it makes the QB look better than he is. Our offense is much more unique this way. So this is the reason why I pick OL first. On the flip coin, I can totally understand the QB argument...that we left a lot of plays on the field with just our serviceable OL. But IMO not as many were left behind this year as we can make with a hoss OL.... Edit to say...we will see a stand out QB at GT before a standout OL....just due to mere numbers and GT's struggles to get great big uglies. So I hope you QB guys are right... [/QUOTE]
