In all the draft and free agent talk and the analyes of the Titans needs I haven't heard or seen much talk bout our offensive line. I remember during the season being pretty frustrated with them and I remember wondering if the Oline was the true source of many of our offensive woes. Neither Brown nor Henry got going well this year and Mcnair/Chow fed our TE's like Pac was paying for dinner. :greedy:
Were the rookie recievers not able to get open?
Is Mcnair's arm losing some strength?
Were the recievers and Mcnair not able to gell?
Was Chow's system too conservative?
Or was the Oline subpar in both run blocking and pass blocking?
I don't have any answers. I'm actually just interested in everyone else's thoughts.
If the Oline was largely a part of the problem, then what are some answers. Like I said I haven't seen much discussion on this. Do some of our veteran's need to be cut? I've never been a fan of hopkins (though I do know of the talent that is there), and I haven't seen much from Olson lately. Do we need to play some of our younger guys or maybe draft some more? Or do we look to free agency? Everyone has been talking about LB needs and DB needs, but OL could be just as large a concern. Maybe more. Add to that, Reese and company have talked about needing to get more speed on defense and that they like the LB group in this draft, which leads my cynical mind to thinking that they aren't looking much at LB's. :suspect: )
