I may have been a year early but I stand by my position that the Eagles need to put more emphasis on the O-Line. My theory then was that Wentz was the future and that we needed to make the O-Line a priority.
Peters is long in tooth and now injury prone.
We have no LG to speak of.
Kelce is playing pretty good but needs help.
Brooks is steady.
Johnson has dropped off considerably.
Backups are run of the mill -- Malitia may have some potential.
My theory is that this D can still be good enough IF the O can score some points. Look as bad as the D has been-- they do not and have not given up a ton of points. But the O can't seem to stay on the field and score themselves.
This teams future is still Wentz and this O-L is going to get him killed but also can't stay on the field enough to let the D rest and keep the other team off the field. (one of my reasons for wanting Bell)
I said this before last year and IMM it still applies they need to put/make the O-Line a priority!!!! I really want to be able to watch Wentz for years and years to come.
