How Critical Is A Great OL?

[Empirical Cane]

If you ever wonder how important a great OL to productive offensive play...

Just watch the Patriot's opening drive against the Dolphins today.

You simply can't move the ball down the field, run or pass, without the big boys upfront dominating.

Miami will not be an elite team until the OL is feared and respected again.

It’s critical, does that answer your question?

More rhetorical.

But yes.

+1.

Great work by Dolphins' big meats as well.

Sprung Gore on strong run.

 

[Go Canes!!]

It’s THE most critical part of any team today.

Oklahoma’s D is ranked 100+ and look where they are today. Ohio State ended up in the 90’s and barely missed out.

Got to score, a lot, to win. Must have the big boys up front to do it.

A lot of teams score a lot of points without elite linemen.

With the entire starting interior OL on IR btw. If only we could stop people from scoring points.

Brutal post. Your point is that OL is important? Who doesn’t think that?

In the big 12...

3 of the teams in the college playoffs have dominating OLs (***** Notre Douche)

That isn't a coincidence.

And yes, ***** ND.

A common denominator with today's game and football 50 years ago is blocking and tackling. The best teams historically tend to do them both well.

More critical to have on a team

 

[Gatorhater]

Canes really only had a great line for our last N.C. our earlier lines were undersized but skilled with one or two top players.

Everything else is gravy.

All football at all levels is won at the LOS on both sides

 

[Stylie]

Offensive lines are not important.
