Ben: Throwing Without Pain

[Buzz]

Hopefully with the addition of D Watt and Wisniewski, we are beefing up our run game.. i figure Ben will be nursed through training camp and the preseason...and our passing game will be sluggish for the first quarter of the season.. hopefully our run game will keep us in games early

Wisniewski is not a very good run blocker. And while Watt is a good lead blocker, I'd be surprised if he was in on offense more than 15 to 20% of the time.

maybe they are planning to move feiler to LG and let Wisniewski be the primary backup at C/G.

This is what I would have expected, but the claim is that they told Wis he has a shot to be a starter.

No problem. We know that AV, Pouncey, and DD are starting and where. We know that Feiler is starting, but we don't know where. Now we throw Okorafor, Wis, and Banner into the steel cage and see who walks out. Winner gets a spot and Feiler goes to the other spot.

great summation

I agree the media is a joke - but does anyone else find it troubling Ben himself said “I don’t typically work out in the off season”?

Most of us work the entire year. Wish I was paid millions to have an ‘off season’ where I could blow off months preparing for the ‘season’.

But who knows? Maybe he’ll have a typical strong September.

Oh wait........

heh.. don’t we all wish we could get paid millions and have an offseason?

my wife is in education and people get mad because she has summers off.

but now parents are seeing why teachers should make more money... lol.

I think we are definitely headed that way. But the more I read about Wisniewski, the more I see he is a backup/fall back option in case of injury. We need to still draft a real starter. I don't think Wisniewski can be a legit starter over the season. He's good as a spot start here and there. Yes he'll get a chance to prove different but I think he is what he is at this point.

I think we go O-line with our first pick and probably add another in the new free agent crop that will come after the draft.

Trump says return to normal by Easter would be a "great timeline"...

[whatever]

Do yall actually think we will have a football season this year?

I think best case would be a shortened one.
Maybe half.

I do. A month and a half from now, I'm thinking things will be better.

Only one week into quarantine and I already see people getting antsy to ignore social distancing. Local park has tons of people hanging out
