the OL is doing fine. From a pass blocking perspective it looks like a top 10 OL this year cant wait till brock plays with our weapons

PFF watcher. Just watch the games. They are not fine.

i have to question what you know what you are watching if you watched the first 3 games and think the OL has been a problem

We are near the bottom in average and yards per game rushing and the only team in the league without a rushing TD through week 3.
I expect it to improve but it definitely has been a problem so far.

It can always look better. Either way Mac has had time to throw and too often had taken too much time. Even with that the team is still #1 in the NFL in passing yards per game.

Of course the run game is going to look worse when teams consistently stack the box. They are forcing us to throw. Makes sense considering we're down so many receivers.

A stacked box is not a checkmate move. All you have to do is pop one gap and your RB is off to the races. The problem we're having with stacked boxes is that our O-line isn't very good at run blocking. I think saying that we're being forced to throw is looking at it the wrong way. I'll suggest that it's more accurate to say we're unable to run effectively (at least in the first half).

Puni injured his knee in pre season and isn't healthy

He reaggravated it against the saints (I think) when a DL landed on him from behind

Both our OG are gutting it out with injuries and less than 100% right now

In the replays he looks like he's not healthy and dragging ass out there

It's time to change the thread title. He's anything but dominant
Oct 12, 2025 at 4:50 PM
Bum.

He's injured and it shows. If he wasn't, no doubt he'd be in the all-pro conversation.

Doesn't make sense to regress this much. He doesn't look nearly as physical as last season. Only difference seems to be the knee injury he suffered early on. Probably still lingering

I've never seen a guy play so good one year and so bad the following year

So glad he was in on a meaningless FG attempt in the preseason to get his ankle rolled up on.

This.

it doesn't make sense he would drop off this much otherwise.

Well then it's on the staff to sit him down b/c he's playing beyond poorly.
