Nassib and Anthony Fabiano got into it a little before the Giants game. Fabiano, a Harvard grad, points out that 10% is not always a given. In fact, over the past 90 years getting a return of exactly 8-10% out of the equity market never happened once. But Nassib, with his Syracuse/Tony Robbins...

just finished watching the game and agree on most observations. I can't give away all my training camp report content but interesting the first team oL was left in the game even after Dalton left the game. They just need to gel. also agree RG Is probably the weak spot but if they can find a...

Hart is not particularly athletic getting to the 2nd level in the way that say Brian O'Neill fits the zone scheme. That being said Bengals.com lists Hart at 316 (down from his 330) and he's been doing fine in practice. Cordy Glenn at LT might actually be the bigger concern than RT. ...

Bobby Hart got railroaded by the Giants' local media after his tweet war with Geoff Schwartz, who called Hart a locker room cancer. It might be overstating the severity but as you say reclamation projects seem to have support system in Cinci.  looking at the Bengals' depth chart, Fisher listed...

this is a great idea, i'll take some notes during preseason week 1 games and see what sort of differentiation can be made.  I suspect everyone tries to run everything. 32 entries of "Hybrid" wouldn't be that exciting. 

Bobby Hart winning the RT job from Jake Fisher isn't good news for the front office but could be good news for the line. Hart is an underrated player and more of a prototypical RT than Fisher (335 vs 310). Hart played hurt last season and his season fell apart but his form from a couple seasons...

Fluker grades as a 3.5 Run blocking 2.5 pass blocking for an overall grade of 3 (B in grade terms) or "Good." He's better than many starters but not a borderline or former Pro Bowl (3.5) or a Current Pro Bowl (4) or all Pro (4.5).  Fluker played 2017 on the Giants (was with San Diego in 2016)...

The OL perspective the Seahawks added D.J. Fluker who is a mauler. Next to Ifedi that could be a good power right side. Tom Cable is gone the line should have more cohesion. Take those moves with the drafting of Penny in rd1 (high but a historic RB crop), it's a signal the franchise wants to...

"And at the end of the first quarter, it's Cleveland -2, the Jets -1."

The Seattle breakdown is below. Not in the graphic is the return of George Fant who can either displace Ifedi at RT or be the best swing tackle in the league.  Solari is an upgrade in the ranks but only marginally. The real improvement will be when the cohesion grade rises to 5 (its currently...

Kelly is the swing guy and most likely to get that start if Conklin can't go.  Pampfile is more of a guard of late but he has started a ton of games at RT. Spain is in trouble with these coaches, don't shoot the messenger. He's not really a ZBS guy.  Marz is an interesting taxi squad type but...

The essence of the Browns grade is that Shon Coleman at LT is a huge ???  and Hubbard (although good) has no cohesion with this group.  If Hubbard stabilizes the cohesion grade could push them right about the middle. He's a new addition though and this is how it works for every team who replaces...

This question was asked in a neighboring thread and you gave it the black dot emoji (?)  https://forums.footballguys.com/forum/topic/767027-the-good-and-bad-of-offensive-line-rankings/?do=findComment&comment=21138890  the TL;DR is they can be cross-referenced against Mosqueda's D front...

Several points on TEN 1) it's not really offensive line without pads and hitting.  2) the Titans' line is going through a transition to a more zone-based scheme. Players like Quinton Spain and Josh Kline might not fit this system (hence the Pampfile and X-SuaFilo signings, both could actually...

Sack stats are not included in this model. Completed sacks (taking the QB to the ground with possession, or forcing a fumble) are a narrower measurement than total hits, which are used from time to time in my own research but neither are tracked in the model. QB hits and sacks are not OL...

The depth charts are not connected to the model. So the depth charts had Ola but the model had Schofield at B- with B run blocking and C+ pass protect. Two different systems  As for Lamp I can certainly see your point, but it's a projection. I am being generous because a year in any team's...
