Who would've thought, huh? If I'm not mistaken, Orton wasn't sacked at all and barely touched tonight. Kudos to them. They're relatively young too. At least the front office got something right.

Too little too late. And what's the point of having a rebuilt OL if you don't even take advantage of it.

Philly was getting pressure for sure. Orton was releasing pretty quickly and was moving around a lot to avoid pressure.

That being said, I do have hope that we have a pretty solid oline that can be improved with some minor tweaks and depth next year.

Problem is that Jerry will still be here.

Not so sure. Leary has a degenerative knee condition and Berny and Free are question marks. With that said, there are more pressing needs.

Orton was getting the ball out fast. Sometimes too fast. He had time. Pulled the trigger too early.

I'm not sure about being a strength. We lack real depth to call it a strength. It's not a weakness anymore though.

They developed into being our strength. Waters quickly became an after thought. If we can do the same with our Dline, we'll certainly see the benefits of that.

What??????????? LOL

Murray.......17 carries for 51 yards isn't ready for primetime

And when you can't get a yard on 4th and 1....That tells you all you need to know how the offensive coordinator views this line about gaining a yard via the run game.

Oline is vastly improved. They need some depth yes, but the starting group is top ten in the NFL. Berny looked fantastic which is a huge bonus if he continues to develop.

One thing I really enjoyed was Tyron manhandling Trent Cole all game long. Cole didn't even get a whiff of Orton.

Love that we have a dominant LT now

And we all thought all along that all this team needed was an offensive line!

Boy were we dead wrong

The whole offense absolutely sucks. I don't understand how people are trying to find silver linings after tonights game lol

Free sucks. Leary has degenerative knees. OL is still a priority.

You're confusing bad play calling with the ability of the Oline.
