I would say 10 years ago when we rolled the dice on Charlie Johnson as LT.

Last week was encouraging all around. Let's see them continue to do good things.

Edit: Bradbury even moved from being ranked in the 30's by PFF week 1 to 25th!!!! Lol

What are the rankings looking like this week for the OL?

Seriously if the offense keeps going like this Klint will be offered head coaching jobs and we need to let Zimmer go at that time.

Bradbury moved up to 24th from 25th!!!
Cleveland is 28th guard
Udon 10th guard
Hill moved up to 71st out of 73 guys. He isn't last anymore!!!
O'Neill is 24 Tackle.

We still have a ways to go before we have a legit oline...Darrisaw needs to be solid also.

It is a great sign. It is being proven if Cousins is protected he will beat you.

The guard play has been so much better.

With as good as the run game has been the past two weeks, and as few sacks as Cousins has taken, I'm surprised the OL ratings aren't better. I fully admit I don't have a great football mind, but that still seems peculiar to me.

But yes, Cousins is as good as anyone when he is given time.

FNG keep in mind that the rankings for guard and Tackle are based on 2 positions being played at that spot. So that means that both guards spots and Tackle are top half of the league at their position based on the PFF rankings. Also I don't totally buy into the PFF ranking anyway but it's something worth at least looking at IMO. They have Cousins as the 3rd ranked QB.
