I wouldn't hesitate to say he doesn't have any fire and in fact on occasional plays looks disengaged or something. He is just slow out of the blocks and his feet just don't move.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

I never understood how the GM could be satisfied with horrible line play on both sides of the ball.... Games are won in the trenches, he obviously didn't learn a thing from Jimmy Johnson!

Average means that he's in the middle ... that means of 32 starting RT's, he should be around #16.

At this point, he's not only NOT average, he's one of the worst RT's in the league.

Hardly average.

I thought he played well in the second half.

His problem is that teams know they can throw him off his game by playing "slapsies" with him, so they will keep doing it. His coaches did a good thing by telling him to take it to the defenders in the second half instead of waiting for them to engage, but that may only work until other teams see the adjustment.

It really stinks that the opposition could not figure out the hole in his game in 2010 before that contract, but he was really good that year and Dallas paid him for it (if the hadn't, the Bucs were going to).
