It also does have to do with the line. But we get it. You are butthurt Mularkey is gone and expect us to win the Super Bowl by week 2 to justify his firing. You can’t fathom that he was a bad coach an

Concerning if the trend continues.

It won’t once they don’t have to GP for Gabbert under center.

Down 3 OTs and your starting Qb is going to lead to running the ball more. I don’t understand why this is a topic 

Some losers still trying to prove to themselves they ain’t losers for loving mularkey

 

pro tip: you’re losers

That's because you're confused. The A is not pink, it's brown. The pink IS a few inches away from the brown (so, I can understand the confusion.)

 

But, if you put 2 fingers in the pink and 1 in the A you will consistently "get" the same thing.

 

2 soggy fingers (hopefully) and 1 that smells like shit.

Potentially the best non-football post in board history.

They were the most run heavy 1st down team in the league in week 1 too....

 

But there is no way it's an issue against the Texans, they couldn't pass block. According to Cossel they had two pure drop backs in the passing game and their OL was beaten both times. 

And yet for some reason there are still idiots trying to say that if Mariota were in the game that we'd be throwing "real" passes?

Forget about our QB situation.  If that is true and we only attempted two pure drop passes last game, this roster is horrific at OL depth and that's a problem.

Of course it is, people also don't seem to realize how big of a deal it is to be out 3 tackles... At that point depth isn't necessarily the issue and the name of the game is just surviving

 

Everyone ragged on our interior line all preseason, not sure why losing our 3 best outside linemen is making people actually realize that those worries very well could be true

We actually have pretty damn good OL depth compared to most teams. 

 

The issues with the roster are ILB, WR, and DL. And with ILB/WR, it’s more about the starters than the reserves..

The funny thing is that being out the top few linemen for game(s) at a time aren't too uncommon, the thing that really would be uncommon though is if the coach didn't do anything to "adapt" to their gameday roster

 

Obviously Brady and Manning are exceptions but their OL's are just such obvious examples of how offenses gameplan to cater to those on the field and not just who is taking snaps. It is well documented how those guys make their OL's look unstoppable simply because how quickly the ball gets out of their hands, I can assure you that WRs aren't running too many different routes in that 1.5 seconds or whatever.

 

Those guys obviously have more "real" dropbacks than we did the other day, but those guys are also on an unimaginable level that is just not something that can be replicated with the poise commanded to nail throw after throw.
