But it does mean they can't be in a one technique spot & be expected to block a 3 technique defender when the ball is going to the three technique side of the field. If you ask a player to make a play he simply cannot make, you are doing nothing but exposing him & making him look worse than he is. And a lot of that is going on with this offensive line on play after play after play. Simply put, you are not putting the right hat on the hat it should block & asking to make the block. It's not gonna happen. And yet, our Offensive line coach is asking his offensive line to make this happen.
On top of this we do precious little double teaming, absolutely no cross blocking & I have til yet to see an interior lineman attempt to pull for a play, or see a trap play run.
