Casey Rabach and the Center Position

Like it or not we're not going to be able to overhaul the entire OL in one offseason. Samuels, Thomas, and Rabach are all pretty much locks to be back in their starting spots next year. It's LG and RT that will likely see changes.

Why Thomas Matty? I thought w/ the neck injury, surgery etc he was kind of a question mark...

Thats to be expected. Though it would really be a treat to come away from the offseason with 2 or 3 new guys that could either come in immediately or easily gain a starting spot in 2010.

I doubt we'd keep Rabach if he isn't starting. He can't play anywhere else on the line and a backup center has to be able to play guard in a pinch considering we'll usually have no more than 8 active linemen come game day. I too was confused by JLC's interior line piece...I agree that he probably goes off his biases towards players on a personal level. Rabach is a fun guy who gets along with the media and does Thomas while Kendall is just a normal guy doing his job. That probably affects these writings more than anything.

Rabach is ok, but JLC is making way too many excuses for the guy. It's "analysis" like that that leads one to believe Rabach must be one of his "sources"

Didn't Rabach cost us the Chargers game back in 2005?

AND Devin Thomas his only touchdown CATCH of the year. :doh:

It seemed like our Oline was penalized....A LOT this year in general. It could be a result of their inability to legitamately protect and need to supplement a new technique. "Extreme Holding"

That was Heyer, I think.

Yeah it was, he blasted someone from the Cards d-line, Dockett maybe?
