I keep reading how the Best Offensive Line in the NFL got abused vs. the Giants Blah blah blah. Olivier Vernon definitely played well and made some guys look bad on certain plays which caused holding penalties. I don't feel it was as bad as people are making this out to be but that is my opinion. I felt the pass protection was very good and cmon the box was stacked all game long but ok let's for the sake of argument say they got abused.

HOW DO THEY RESPOND?

Did this position group need a game like that as sort of a wakeup call. Does this line put a boulder on the shoulder now and go out angry with a point to prove and take it all out of the Commanders this week MAN I HOPE SO!

This could work out to be the perfect storm!

Commanders run defense + Alfred Morris return + Angry Offensive Line hell bent on revenge + Zeke is probably really angry about his performance and wants to prove something = This could turn out to be one hell of a running clinic- I for one hope Morris gets around 15 -20 carries and gets to put it to his old team !

Big E is not walking out of that locker room on Sunday....so no. Don't sense intimidation or anger with this team. "Ho hum, let's try again guys, it will be ok".

They didn't abuse us... They just had a numbers advantage on us the whole day and we didn't take advantage of it through the air.


I don't care how good they are.. They won't consistently run well against 8 or 9 in the box. It's not highschool or college.

Agree...they have NO edge to their game. Comes from the HC and his staff. SOFT as a marshmallow.

If I was the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys I would have told them that they got manhandled on Sunday and that they should be embarassed. And that they need to stop talking about being the best line in football.

But Garrett probably patted them all on the fanny and told them its a process.

Better question: Do they come out throwing the ball and catching it?

How many sacks, forced fumbles and INTs did that $100+ million dollar defensive line of the giants get again?

Again I agree with you I do not feel they got abused but i have seen it mentioned. To answer your question 0

I thought they played well personally i am just asking if the perception is that they got abused do you think it will cause a chip or them to come out with something to prove ? thats all

I think people are misinterpreting my thread i DO NOT THINK THEY PLAYED BAD lol

I get the feeling this line, and the players on it, for the most part don't need any one telling them to play better or jump down their behinds or be a rah rah kind of scenario.
I think they are all professional enough and good enough to play hard each game and work on any areas of need they feel need addressed.

Frankly it is one of the very few areas of the team that I don't worry about.

I am more worried about what is done about and said about with the Defensive line.

Washington well do the same thing as New York. Stack the line big time against Zeke and make Dak beat them.

The Giants didn't fear Morris, but they played 8 up front every time Zeke was in.

Thanks to Beasley and Dez, it worked.

Football players are hyper competitive and i know they don't care what fans think, i'm just wondering if it gives them sort of bulletin board material amongst themselves to come this week and set the tone, all i am saying is they are tight as a group ( personally i don't worry about this group either) more of a personal thing between them

Harrsion dominated inside and Vernon was living in our backfield. Huge factors in the game.
