Folks, I am very concerned about Flozell going down.

There is a very good reason GMs all around the league peg LT as one of the most important positions in Pro Football.

And with this team it is even more important when Drew Bledsoe is your QB.

This will definetly effect us. In no way shape or form do I think our Season is over, we can still win games, and it is a good thing our Defense is stepping up and getting better as we go.

I also think it is very fair to say this will alter what we do, and are able to do Offensively.


So my question to everyone is how will this effect our Offense?

What will it effect in regards to Playcalling, Protections, Aggresiveness, etc..?

IMO......it hurts the run more. We will give up a few more negative plays passing as well. I think we will be okay....but it's hard to say this injury doesn't hurt.

I think it means keeping in more to block and some of the plays we've been using in the recent games to stretch the field...letting Drew drop back 7 steps and letting the play develop will be more difficult. If we do...it's because we have one less reciever running routes staying behind to block

I don't think much changes. Bledsoe is actually affected more by a pass rush up the middle, or, in his face. That's why Rivera was such an important signing.

Personally, I don't think much changed after Adams went down yesterday. Adams hasn't been all that great anyway.
