Our line play was a joke today

Both sides of the ball. The first quarter it was okay but outside of that we got killed on both sides of the line.


When did our DLine last touch Leftwich? Seems like it was a long time ago.

Bletsoe isn't doing a great job but he has a man in his face every play.

I didn't think the o-line was that bad. Even when Bledsoe had all day he didn't do anything. He sat back there hopping around like he does.

And the d-line played well until they got wore down. And that will happen when the offense just won't get anything going.

actually, the line played pretty well. jj did about as expected against the defensive line and drew had time to throw. he just made stupid decisons.

That's true when he's holding the ball for 7 seconds. And we knew going into this game that we would have it tough with their interior defense. Yet, we run over 90 percent of our running plays have been in the interior of their defense. We're suppose to lose.

Yeah this is the typical Bledsoe supporter "lament"-- blame the offensive-line for the stupidness of Drew Bledsoe.

The OL did well. The DLine left something to be desired, especially in the second half. Absolutely no fire.

I have to agree,, the O Line has been good, bledslow is the problem today,, not the line.

Maybe early on the OLine played well. The entire 2nd half Bledsoe had someone atleast hurrying him.

Considering the competition, i thought the O-Line was OK. It's just hard to impossible to consistently beat a strong defense over an entire game when your QB cant improvise under pressure.

The DLine was average at best.

I don't think Romo would have done much better. He's never had to even play against a good defense in his life.

I don't see how anyone would blame the line for Drew's careless mistakes. He had all day to throw it. It's Drew's fault period.

i thought our line played well. the Oline surprised me how well they played.

Bledsoe lost whatever juice he had after the 1st quarter and faded like a candle in the wind. It was weird to watch. The O just fizzled like they didn't have a care in the world.

I agree Romo is a complete unknown. My point is Bledsoe is not. We know what he can and can not do. He's good when he has a clean pocket. When there's pressure, his game falls apart.

Im not a negative person but Flozzell Adams has been getting raped by a backup DE for most of this 2nd half.

I disagree, the OL played well enough to win. The playcalling and Bledsoe lost this game against a team with a very inferior roster
