Hopefully but if that dude we picked up Tuesday or Tackle Eligible starts I'm not so sure.
Our olinemen just aren't that good. Thats the case every week though, and we dont see those types of performances. Brees covers a lot of their mediocrity by getting rid of the ball so fast. Evans and Nicks are the only legit guys we've had there. I dont think another team in the league has the bodies to do what SF does to our oline.

At run blocking maybe but when it's the starting lineup together they're good pass blockers.

First of all, you are way off on your assessment to the point of being borderline retarted. During the first half, Brees had plenty of time to throw thanks to using max pro sets. There were tight ends & backs being kept in the help block. The final 3-4 drives were brain cramps by Carmichael where we saw no backs or tight ends left in to help block & when we did, we even got a Patrick Willis on Darren Sproles matchup in blitz pickup. C'mon Willis will win that matchup 9 times out of 10. The offensive line struggled in the 2nd half with D-line stunts which is more mental then just getting beat in one on one matchups which is physical.

That's on Kromer & Carmicheal not getting them prepared properly leading up to the game. Please know what the hell you are talking about before you drag your arse across the board like a dog with worms.
