Re: Cards post game
Our o-line is gonna get the kid killed[if these jokers can't block the Cards, what happens when we face an angry Bills team in two weeks??] the Cowboys- Eagles-49er's are lickin their chops just thinking about facing us with this o-line...I hope that[EB] has something up his sleeve or we're in for a long season...our defense can't save us every Sunday!!

Re: Cards post game
I was at the game, and it appeared to me the O-line was doing a pretty decent job. The running game was probably below average, but I don't know how much of that was the play calls, the RBs, or the O-line. Probably a good mix. I thought the protection was good overall though. I would only put a couple of those sacks on the O-line - definitely the strip-sack TD. Sam needs to be more decisive. Hopefully that will come with more experience in the league and in EB's system.

Re: Cards post game
I very much doubt that Sam lacks the confidence to throw the ball into small windows. Also, I'm certain that he knows more than anyone that he has a very powerful arm. So, I'd look elsewhere for the reason he didn't make a throw.

Re: Cards post game
Sam has to learn to cover the ball and go down on that play. Once Wiley was beat he was dead to rights and his only job is to secure the ball and not carry it like a briefcase. Probably just growing pains but hopefully he learns from that.

Re: Cards post game
howell gave a really good press conf yesterday re sacks.
Said he needs to help the O line better getting the ball out and just throwing it away vs stepping out a yard short of the LOS. on sack strip score ... he said he should have just eaten it once it was a blown play and he shouldnt have tried to back spin out of a sack in that down/distance/spot on field. ---------- Work in progress but Wylie will need 66% TE help or be replaced by week 8 or so.

Re: Cards post game
If Gibson is fumbling and not pass blocking well, CRod is going to just start taking all of his reps. Think we'll be looking for a RB for 2024.
Good to know that the line played better than the eye-test seemed to indicate. I trust Howell to keep improving, so if they play like that or maybe a little better all season, and Howell keeps progressing, might look pretty good by the end of season.
