I agree but is the elite WR necessary? Brady Rodgers and Brees spent large chunks of their careers without elite WR. The idea that Sewell would magically transform them to a great OL and Burrow would never be hurt is pure fantasy but I think did at the time thought it would make sense to take him since they had Higgins and Boyd then. But once they took Chase it was really stupid to pay Higgins on top of that. They should have let Higgins walk

Chase lead the league in catches yards and Rec TDS last year, like the 2nd or 3rd triple crown ever, so apparently he wasn’t just waving like this silly meme suggests

That’s great for his personal resume and is certainly something to be proud of. However, how did the Bengals as a whole do? If you asked him if he would cut his personal stats in half if it meant that they won a Super Bowl, I would presume he would say yes to that deal.

Look at the Chargers this year. Their season could've been over before it started when their LT Slater tore his ACL in training camp. Because they drafted a tackle Alt 5th overall last year they're making it work and that's with other injuries on their OL.

“Arguably the best run-blocking offensive tackle in the league, Sewell would have ranked higher on this list had he performed better as a pass blocker in 2024,” Zoltán Buday of PFF wrote. “He has earned a 95.7 PFF run-blocking grade over the past two seasons, which leads all offensive tackles,” Buday continued. “However, he placed only 29th at the position with a 75.4 PFF pass-blocking grade in 2024 after allowing pressure on 4.7% of pass plays (23rd).”

He has a long history of retardation on this board.
He didn't even know Sewell was a RT

Congratulations on missing the point.
The team missed the playoffs because the defense was awful not because they can’t protect Burrow and there fore Chase is a bystander as the meme I replied about implies. They lost games to both Baltimore and Pittsburgh where they scored 38, had they won just 1 of those they would have made the playoffs

Is that the same guy that used to constantly argue that Hebert was the best QB? Theecarolina or something

I believe it is TheRealCarolina, which wasn't his first name on here, either.

Exactly. There are more small (relatively speaking) fast guys than their are giant insanely athletic people. Good QBs can win with average WRs. Bad QBs can't win with great WRs, and QB can win consistently with an awful OL.

So should the Dolphins

See this where PFF’s overall grades are arse. He was 23rd in pressure rate at 4.7%. On the surface that doesn’t look good (pressures can also be subjective depending on who is grading but I’ll leave that alone for now). What they are not factoring is the fact that he allowed all of one sack last season. Detroit had roughly 600 pass drop backs last season and he was on the field for all of them. Most, if not all NFL coaches will be more than happy if a guy gives up a pressure once every 24-25 passing snaps, if that same guy only gives up one sack in roughly 600 pass blocks.
Let’s not ignore that the guy has been a first team all-pro across the board the last two seasons as well.

So you lie on every board on this site huh?
You said that Penei Sewell isn’t good at LT despite the fact that the guy was a unanimous all American at Oregon at LT as a true sophomore and was the first ever sophomore to win the Outland trophy.
You said the guy isn’t an elite pass blocker. He’s allowed two sacks total in his first 4 seasons as an NFL starter. One was as rookie starting at a new position (RT).
But yeah sure let’s hear more about how’s not an elite from a guy who claims to know everything yet clearly knows nothing.

And when he played LT in the NFL he was bad

He's not. He's the best run-blocker OT, though.
