THE OFFENSE LINE–PERIOD!!!

While the QB deal has not been sealed–the OL just about has with really only the LG position up for grabs–believe Watt starts here.

That being said I watched in horror how Nix and Aaron Lynch–(what 17 yrs old?) threw a bunch of experienced 300+ starters all over the place including Trevor Robinson in the BG game.

Hopefully with going against this DL this Fall Camp will improve the quality of the OL play–I am not at all sold on this group.

Key Indicator: will be opening game against USF when it’s 3rd or 4th and one yard to go early in the game and the RB gets stuffed–can just hear the air going out of the balloon if that happens.

Time for all the OL to pick it up especially Robinson and I don’t want to hear about his need to re-shape or re-model his body for this offense.

To me this OL performance will make or break this season and we will know the answer quite early in the season.
