I agree with that but again the line is a full ecosystem, every struggling player makes every other player worse, same goes for people playing well
We saw the same thing back in the day with Yanda playing next to Gino Gradkowski specifically. Yanda was still a good player, but we certainly were not getting the best out of him because they had his head on a swivel to try to cover for the empty hole next to him.

You're kind of seeing the same thing with Linderbaum this year. He's still a good player, but he's certainly had more issues than I've ever seen. And the issue seems to be that he is taking on more 1v1 blocks than I've ever seen him take in order to try to keep those Gs as focused as they can be, because they can't do what Yanda was doing all of those years ago.

Edc sacrificing this year to try and get Lindy cheap.

Then bring in real guard talent next year... right

Next up vs. Bengals. I'd be shocked if Hamilton plays tbh. I wouldn't be surprised if Tee passes concussion protocol because it's just our luck. Well hopefully, the tandem of Jones and Green continues to prosper because we're gonna need it against these QBs coming up.

Me too. He was badly hurt. Our HC as always spoke of God's words from one side of his mouth, and lied to our faces from the other side of his mouth about Hamilton. Talk about Jekyll and Hyde...
