"The Old Man" is Andrew Whitworth, of course.
Woods is great. He's a huge part of this teams success, but Whitworth is up there for "best Rams FA acquisition ever". It goes well beyond his play on the field, which is still capable of being elite at 38 years old.
He had his best rated game as a Ram and his best in 10 years against a tough Dallas front, the 1st game back after having had covid-19 in the off-season.
I've never owned an OL jersey, but think I want a #77 this year. (Bone, naturally)
Last year, before the season started, I expressed my doubts in AW's ability to keep up his performance for another year, let alone two. I felt like trusting him to be our LT was a risky choice and thought it might be best to bite that bullet and get someone else going there. I was very wrong.
(How about how much more in sync, like choreography, did our line look moving downfield on screens, hitting 2nd level blocks... it was beautiful)
Here's to the monolith of our O-line, Andrew Whitworth, a guy whose impact on our team is understated and maybe unnoticed outside of our fan base, but who is as integral to our turn around as anyone not named Sean McVay.
Cheers to Big Whit! Here's to 10 more years....
