Everybody's OL is a WIP.

We had 3 starters returning from most accounts a functional OL in '16. Are you really suggesting a team's OL can't transition from one season to the next unless they have more than 3 starters returning?

KJ got a lot of grief in '16. Most was deserved. But by season's end, he had become a solid LT. He plays worse now than he did at his worst in '16. How is that explained? Is he playing hurt?

I don't know about all that but for a team replacing 3 starters on the interior of the line and returning a part-time starter on the right end, this clearly is a team trying to figure out how to play together, as a unit, 5 games into the season.

We lost Pocic, Boutte and Maea from the starting 5. Two returners and one of them is learning the critical QB of the line at center.

KJ was the weak link on last year's unit. He is the most experienced OL. He will be going through police training this time next year and not playing in the league, enough said.
