This Offensive Line...

[Flasteel]

Still sucks.

Still sucks.

yeah, I think that sums it up pretty accurately...

[Discipline of Steel]

They do but at least there is still time for them to pull it together. OT position does scare me though...COME ON GILBERT!

Sadly, Gilby just looks weak, weak, weak.... and slow to boot. But there was no excuse for Pouncey's performance other than he was not ready to play an NFL game tonight.

And unmotivated and lazy, and lacking in agility and balance.

Lets get real.........this is a new zone blocking scheme. not gonna happen overnight. Again, been watching football for a long time and never put too much weight on a preseason game.

Pouncey looks like garbage and the penalties are not acceptable regardless of preseason or blocking scheme. They just flat out suck.

This is true, Sid! Still, they need to have this down in the next three weeks. The OL doesn't have much depth, so a lot of things need to fall into place in a short period of time with the few guys they have. It should work out. But these guys need to step up the prep for this dramatically, if the indications are what they are.

Honestly, both Pouncey & Gilbert looked lathargic tonight. I think both the Florida Boyz were having some " LEAN " before
game time tonight. It's a well known drink amongst Florida Hip-Hop Gangstas!!

not funny and not necessary.

[sedatedsteelerfan]

I wasn't joking. Both Gilbert and the Pouncey have known past Gang histories. Look it up. Hell Pouncey was Indicated in another murder that Hernandez is being investigated about. Pouncey had a very good rookie year. But he hasn't been a top-20 NFL Center since. Please remove your head from your butt and actually look at Pouncey's play. Maybe he's just too worried about his " Hommie " Hernandez getting away with " 187 " then his play!

Wrong. All teams Zone block and man block.. There is nothing new here. These guys know how to zone block from pee wee all the way up. It's so easy a cave man could do it... the little bit that I saw tonight, the OT's looked like crap. Getting rid of Starks is gonna bite em in the ars. imo. Terrible move letting him walk.
I still think they are gonna pick up a veteran OT somewhere, especially when cuts start.. Gilbert needs to sit on the bench- not sure what's happened to him since his 1st year.....

[Steel Life]

There's time for the starters to gel by the start of the season...but the 2nd string is atrocious - Whimper should be cut tomorrow.

your comments are moronic and I don't suspect you will last much longer here than you did last time.

Dude, how is this offensive ? I mean wasn't it Pouncey who got into trouble in High School for having Guns found in the trunk of his car...charges later dropped. Wasn't it Pouncey, and his Brother who were openly supporting a Indicted Murderer ?
And Gilbert's past is well chronicled. ot tomention his horrid play. Look, Pouncey at least has played well in the past, so maybe he can get it together. But please, don't make any excuses for Gilbert cause he has flat Sucked since we wasted a draft pick on him.
