We had some really bad OLs those years we were 2-14 and the Rick Mirer years (sigh) were pretty awful. I would say I saw a few worse OLs during that time. I don't agree this is historically some of the worst play just by the OL - but it is in the bad to very bad category.
I have pretty much stopped watching the offense in the first half now. Wasn't at this game, but I am imagine if I am at the game I will use that time for snack line or something.
I just keep the TV on and if the defense comes back on the field I come back and watch. But right now with no Lynch, and the firm understanding that 75% of the scoring possessions will just be a FG anyway - backed up by some really bad football...no way.
So I got a lot more done in this game than normal and with lower expectations I am not really as bothered by a pretty poor showing by the offense. I did get to see a couple of great plays by Wilson shaking off some tackles and then throwing to what always seemed to be Kearse streaking down the field, and a few good plays by Matthews but pretty much just watch the defense now.
Maybe that is how the Baltimore fans did it when they fielded that great Ravens team?
The defense played amazing, I am hoping that a product of a defense starting to gel and not just 2 really bad teams one after the other....fingers crossed.
