Exactly, the best lineman? I am not sure I would make the same argument. I saw a really bad Adams out there, constantly getting pushed back into the back field on run blocking plays.
Really? I saw something completely different. I was very encouraged (and surprised).

So far the scheme looks to be a massive improvement on offense. We'll see in the real games but we're seeing guys schemed wide open much more often than in past years. There was a play in this game where the LB took away Love underneath so JB went over his head to I thik a Wr in the next layer just wide open.
If the OL holds up I think our offense will be much better.

The defense has to improve of course

I'm seeing the same things as you, massive improvement on offense, with our weapons & this scheme, this offense will be the bright spot of the team. The defense is a bigger question, if it doesn't show improvement over last year, which isn't exactly raising the bar lol, then we'll have a new DC next year.

they need to know if he is the future, or if they need to target a quarterback next year.

Fact check: they absolute do not, and they don’t need Carson Beck to start 17 games to determine that.

The coaches and front office have tons more information on these guys than we do.
no matter if he leads them to the Super Bowl

Cmon man. We’re a very long way from there. This isn’t anything personal about Beck or you; it’s just understanding reality of the situation. It’s been explained many, many times.

You don’t have to like the explanation or even agree with it. But asserting that starting Beck week 1 is a reasonable position is just incorrect.

Correct. They also don’t need to try to win, and they don’t need to have a quarterback on the field, and they don’t need to play at a stadium, and they don’t need to serve food in the cafeteria, and they don’t need to have any training facilities, and they don’t need to have any parking lots outside the stadium, and they don’t need to have a team in Arizona, and they don’t need to have any assistant coaches, and a lot of other things they don’t need, but just make sense.

Misconception. Some players are better in games than at practice.

No. And you don’t have to like the explanation or even agree with it.

Think you're wrong about the food. JMO.

I just saw a couple of posts on Twitter with a little video. If people don't know, Brandon Thorn is one of the best O-line analysts in the business.
