If we had a top level RT - how much better do you think our Offense would be??

-QB would get an extra step to throw consistently
-would convert a couple more 3rd downs for one FG per game
-would allow a deep throw for a TD per game
-these would loosen up the running game and squeeze the clock into the 4th quarter

Yup. I'd say worth 3 to 7 more points a game, 25 to 50 yards.

We'd have had at least 1 Superbowl win, IMHO (key injuries + < talent).

Agree w/all.

Add to that, IMO, there'd be less QB injuries, improved running game w/longer runs and a more rested Defense.

With an upgraded RT and Brock it would be pretty scary. The rest of the qbs not so much.

Any QB can be dangerous with a good O-line. I don't know why Trey or Darnold would be excluded.

Still gotta see and make the throws. Carson Wentz wasn't very dangerous for Indy when they had what was thought of as a top 5 o line.

Numbers were went through in terms of time to throw and the time was there in 21. Wasn't executed. Need a guy playing like Brock to use the time effectively.

I was also referring more to the previous group and the belief we would've won superbowls with a better RT. If we had Brock at the helm sure.

We needed more than a better RT. We needed a better RT, RG and C in our deep playoff runs.

Our center is fine. We got good depth there as well. RG is developing and is far from bad. I know how much people hate the word "development" but at some point you gotta let it happen.

based of what Lynch said yesterday about trying to trade Mike…I'm telling ya they like Colton a whole hell of a lot more than people think. I hope they draft multiple lineman because I think there's value there when we're picking. Don't be shocked if they don't grab a OL with one of those 1sts 3 picks.
