I understand our offensive line needs time to jell. But Jell-O, our offensive line is the most experienced part of the team. It seems other teams offensive lines played fine yesterday.
Actually the offensive line was my biggest worry this off season and preseason. Even after we drafted Robinson, the offensive line worried me. Too many injury prone players. Let's count them. Wells, J. Long, Saffold, and David Joseph. Four! Everyone of the starters but Barksdale is injury prone, and the Rams pay premium prices for the trio of walking wounded -Scott Wells, Jake Long and Saffold. You would figure an experienced line would at least display veteran discipline and not jump the snap count. Too many penalties!
That being said...When Wells, Jake Long, and Saffold click, they really CLICK! I'm a huge Jake Long fan. And Saffold played great guard last year. Maybe all-pro level. Scott Wells was sneaky good last year. I don't know...The Rams have a ghost in the machine...Something I can't quite put my finger on that fudges up the works. Coaching? Maybe. It can't be a curse...Anyway, I would dig some consistency...Right when I'm about to give up, the Rams will jump up and dominate some Super Bowl bound team this year. The Rams will smack them around like a little bitch. Because when the Rams hit on all cylinders, they are truly scary to behold. I think we've all witnessed such slaughters. And that's what so frustrating about being a Ram's fan. We all know how good the Rams can be...
