Jansen vs. Heyer

Stephon Heyer. He played well when he started, Jansen took the job on injury, did well for a few weeks, now looks awful.

To me, Jansen makes a lot of sense at Center because he's a lot quicker out of his stance than Rabach is, and struggles to block ends with multiple moves one on one. But on the interior, he wouldn't face players like this, and would actually handle his own theoretically.

Plus, we threw a bunch of money at him prior to 2007, and we're not about to give up on him just yet.

I just heard JC is the fifth most sacked qb. That sure is not helping JC get better. We shoould put in Heyer and see what happens. If he is better in pass protection the maybe he will improve his run blocking with more game experience.

If you are playing this Sunday to win this Sunday's game and not worrying about the future and all that stuff, you play Jansen.

If you want to develop Heyer and give him game experience for "down the road" play Heyer.

Heyer has to play the rest of the way. Jansen is not going to get any better at this point, Heyer will with more PT. He is the better edge blocker and we desperately need that now.

Absolutely!

Jansen is done. It hurts my heart to say it, because I loved that guy for so long, but he's a liablity at this point.

Heyer has an excuse for missing a block on run plays.What is Jansens for the lack of pass protection.Is it because he has experience..lol.He should be protecting better than he is!!!!

Jansen seems to be taking the brunt of this but let's face it he's not the only guilty party here. With Samuels I'm willing to give him some slack due to him playing with a bad knee, and Kendall has generally been pretty solid. Rabach, Thomas, and Jansen/Heyer have all had their moments of shitty play.

Am I the only one who noticed that the whole O-line started it's downward spiral when Buges left for his family emergency and has not recovered since? Whether it's technique or execution...lol. I'm not sure but the whole line has sucked since then.


I know Buges is back but just wonder if he lost his zing for coaching or are the players simply blowing him off?
