Can anyone imagine how high our O-Line would be rated if we have drafted/signed Lael Collins?

It's weird because people will downplay PFF for saying Streif isn't playing that bad now, but will also use PFF as a reference to say he's played well in the past

Give it a rest will ya, people like myself use PFF in regards to Streif the last few years to back up what we saw and how few sacks he had given up. This year, yea he's playing pretty bad, but the last few years he's been great for us

The eyeball test must lie. Brees did complete a bunch of passes, however.

The gameplan since the Brees injury was to complete quick passes and check downs, so it should be no surprise that the OL is grading well bc they simply don't have to block for very long.

The OL isn't as bad as some believe but it isn't quite as high as PFF rates it. Somewhere between 12-15 is probably more indicative of how good they actually are, but our recent system doesn't put too much pressure on them.

That wasnt the gameplan early on for some reason last week. Game changed when we switched to it

While I disagree with this rating and think it should be much lower, I will say that offensive line play has dropped off considerably league wide.
