    The price for fixing is negotiable... but the method of attack is not.

    No more rookies - Veterans, with resumes & NFL Tape - not just an SEC database and a pinky promise

    Grimm was hands down the single worst line coach in the league since his last job in 2010-2012, over 150 sacks given up!

    Drafting the best prospect of the draft in Tunsil would certainly help. Fixes our tackles, moves Poutasi to LG. Sign a vet C/LG (Igcognito!). Coach better. Done. Settled for as long as we can keep both tackles paid and happy.

    Precisely why I said I was not sold on him.

    But its not like he is going to get fired before the season starts.

    Our Linemen were better because Munch could actually develop them.

    We have no one to develop players right now, which is why we suck even though we have invested multiple 1st rd picks into the line.

    I will say this, going off OLine rankings, its encouraging that some of the worst lines in the league were recently in the playoffs. So even if we're ranked towards the bottom again, theres some hope as long as we get playmakers to increase our production..

    There is also the Whiz factor though. It could be that his schemes just put too much pressure on the OL that it doesn't matter who the coach is.

    We all hated Levitre and Oher, but when they left, they played better than they ever did here (not to say they are all-pros, but they didn't play at the same level of suckatude) ... could just be the fact that they fell victim to Whiz.

    I didnt watch a lot of Falcon games this past season but the few I caught Levitre looked like his old self. IDK where this idea he improved came from, he was still mostly crap from what I saw..
