Want to say something nice about our sometimes maligned offensive line, that this group is very well prepared to play football every week. It's not the most talented group or dominant group up front, but they get pretty good marks for their awareness and rarely get surprised by a pressure package. It's a great group to develop a young quarterback behind.

Normally, we'd call those things good coaching (and it is), but I don't want to go straight to coaching and sell the actual players short. This is a smart group.

I say this now because I can see some of the lineman getting banged up and missing time and then having to play LeRibeus or Compton later in the year, and the things I mentioned above becoming an issue.
