And with beadles, fusco, and kilgore, we are asking for harm to come to our Qbs. Screw whether we put up points or not. We have to protect our Qbs. Sure, we got CJ if Brian gets hurt. But once CJ is in we got nobody. And he will get injured too if we don't do something to protect him. Let's find out now if anyone, Laken or Magnus or gilliam can a) help protect Hoyer, and b) run block...at least a little bit. But QB protection is high on the list. We've got lots of OL learning to do, but if we allow boht QBs to get injured, this is a totally lost yr. And KYle cannot allow that to happen.
We'll know who is starting by Friday, I think. Kyle said the interior line will be competing for the starting position. The only objection I have to starting Laken is in the pass protection area. If Laken misses his assignment it's a straight line path for a DT to hit Hoyer at full speed. The other backup O LInemen have been here throughout training camp and would have a better bead on their pass protection assignments.
