jes2400 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 The O-Line position is one of the most over looked positions in all of sports.I was just reading stats,and we haven't given up a sack in two games.Very impressive for a supposedly makeshift line with a rookie tackle whos arms are supposed to be too short for him to be effective in the NFL.Yeah Matt,Roddy,Turner,and all our other stars are pleying well,but it wouldn't happen without our great OL!Props to them,they are the real team MVPs!

NateMyers Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 You're right, and the O-Line needs their props. But they wouldn't look as good if Harrington was still at Quarterback. So the other additions need the credit too. The pieces have come together to make a formidable TEAM. Not just the O-Line, Matt, Roddy, Turner, or Abraham each. But, together, these pieces work great.

falconsfan1987 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I have been really surprised with the play of the OL this year. They have made it alot easier for Matt Ryan to do his thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrano Case Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I'm thinking that coaching, attitude and passion are responsible for the turnaround. What a great season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
