Redskins Offensive Line: 2012 Unsung Heroes

The offensive line played beautifully. Of course I didn't like them allowing 4 sacks on Griffin III, but they pass protected well and blocked well for Morris. They did their job.

I have a new erespect for Kory Lictensteiger. To come back after that terrible knee injury a year ago and to be able to play at the level he's played at speaks volumes. It would be excellent if Lichtensteiger was selected for the pro bowl.

OL was supposed to be our weakness or one of the main weaknesses this year.

They're good enough to win a super bowl with them.

People bash Polumbus, and yes, he is the worst of our OLineman, but he's still better than most the RTs in the NFL, and the Giants, Eagles, Steelers, Cowboys, would love to have him right now...

the OL gave up 4 sacks, a bunch of hits, and if griffin weren't there to bail them out, we'd be dogging them pretty hard right now.

I don't think these guys are hall of famers. though they definitely are good enough (except for polumbus, who'd i'd replace asap).

I think you may be over stating that just a bit.

Kyle and Mike have done a terrific job putting together an offensive scheme that can take advantage of the team's talents. This line is not big, but they can move, so we have stretch zone plays that outflank the defense, and a decisive back who is very hard to bring down once he makes the one-cut.

Our WRs are sturdy and willing to block, they're sharp route-runners. And needless to say, RG3 is all that and a bag o' Doritos.

What's amazing is that going into this offseason (which we don't even need to think about yet), do we really need any offensive pieces? Anybody we pick up would seem to be luxury/depth. We can focus almost all of our resources on defense.

Future's so bright.

look all they have to do is hold up but let pray they stay up all year.

This is a great point. A main reason our OL is playing at the level that they are is because they are good fits for the offense we run and we run plays to their strengths. This is not the Hogs 2.0. These guys aren't going to blow defensive lines 3 yards off of the ball because that's not what they're expected to do. This isn't a power running line but for what the scheme calls for, they are balling out.

It will be interesting to see next year if LeReibus can push Liectenstiger for the LG spot and who we bring in to replace Brown & Polumbus. After many years of neglect, our line is no longer a cause of major concern. Shanahan deserves credit for addressing and improving that.

I agree that the offensive line has played admirably this season. Trent Williams is playing at an all pro level and Kory Lichtensteiger has been pancaking DTs and linebackers all season. While I would like to see an upgrade at center, I feel Will Montgomery has been spectacular. Chris Chester has been quiet but I don't think he's given up a sack all year long. A lot of people feel Polumbus is below average but for a 2nd string RT he has played well all season.

RT. The way Garcon and the rest of the wr's look lately - Robinson and even Hank - i would say that WR is a non issue. Though we have to wonder if this is Moss's swan song? Davis will be back at tight end. Alot of talented youth on that side of the ball. Yeah offense looks pretty solid For sometime.
