Not to mention almost 2 more interceptions.
It looks like it's going to be a long season Doc.
This is what happens when you ignore the OL.
Negative. (Pun intended).

.. and then?
Well, if we're playing "if's" and "almosts" there's also dropped passes that can be thrown in.... umm, yeah pun not intended.
Rating is what it is

Not interested in that weak fight.

I think you nailed it. Ignore the ol and at best we're aiming for 500. Our division isnt gonna suck forever.
He's completely in over his head.
The best year was the first year with Kubiaks personnel

If you follow passer ratings at all, you will notice that completion numbers slowly increase the value while interceptions drop them like a sack of rocks.
Yep, this is all BOB's fault.

True, but ratings don't take into account ifs and almosts

Be advised that we were without Hopkins, Fuller, Miller, Brown and Foreman. L. Miller only played 2 series.

No. But it sure goes to evaluation of your QB.

So does an offensive line. That's where our troubles begin.
Gotta get stronger if they want to play in the NFL.

I saw things to like tonight from savage. Sure he didnt dazzle but he got us moving with no run game and a shotty ol. Definitely looked like he did a lot of check downs but he got to them fast. Showed he knew where the routes were and got zero help. Not much else positive tonight.

But, of course, we had Lamm, Allen, Filo, Martin and Giacomini............that more than makes up for it.

Apples and roadmaps
O'Brien has failed to learn since Game 1 of year 1 in Houston that O-linemen need to settle in and develop chemistry. He brought from New England this dogma that he can move linemen around and expect them to still function optimally. It doesn't work that way. Let people learn their position, or remain ideological as your offense fails to function. If the line continues to suck this season, he needs to go. He should have learned his lessons already.

they got some winners?
Who on the OL isn't playing where they played last yr.
Excluding Martin.

obviously OB and the Texans agreed with that sentiment
2nd team RG.
That's why I said excluding Martin.
Really I'm beginning to think they should put Mancz back at C and move Martin to RG to get their best OL on the field.
I think Vrabel is going to do fine as our DC this year. Looks like he's doing a good job developing our players & getting the most out of what depth we do have.
Offensively, I think our coaches have their work cut out for them. Jacksonville is going to be a low scoring affair.

Mancz subbed for XSF on the 2nd series & played the rest of the way with the "1st team." X came back in with the second team & had some pretty bad moments.
Fuller played RG for a series or two & made Allen look like our best option at RG.
Hopefully they leave a couple of OL in the Crescent City.
