All you Levi Brown defenders still believe he doesn't suck?

Seriously? Is anyone shocked that Levi, up against the best sack defense in the league, can't handle Quinn without help.

No excuse Stevo, as a starting LT in the NFL your ultimate job is to be a pass protector for your QBs blind side.

Problem is he sometimes makes street guys look like all pros.

Sorry Bucky, I think your expectations are too high. He's a mediocre (read, roughly average) left tackle for a reason, he isn't good enough to handle the better pass rushers. The Rams are loaded with quality pass rushers. IMO, those sacks were on the coaches. When he makes an average guy look like an all pro, I'll echo your rant.

That's cool & I agree with your assessment of the dude, so why is he on this roster & playing LT? That's my question. We had other opportunities to get better. :bang:

Agreed. There are a couple of very good left tackles coming out this year, I really hope we get one of them.

Yes I'll stand by Levi - when we start the half passing every down for 3 and out- if the defense didn't score the offense would sure have stepped on their Richard again

It's been clear since day one Brown is best suited to be a guard. He's a strong run blocker, but really struggles with pass rushers. Would have been nice to draft Riley Reif last year at LT, and stick Brown at RG.

Hey, Quinn just got past Levi again.

Knock knock.

Who's there?

It's an elite edge rusher, Levi.

Oh, well by all means come on in and meet my quarterback while his back is turned.

ARZ should have traded for and should try and trade now for Branden Albert. Then they can get a pass rusher in Round 1.

Play to his strength. If he has to block Quinn on 40 or whatever pass attempts he's going to gu e up sacks. I'm surprised It wasn't worse

Then don't hire a coach who likes to throw the rock. Or axe the LT who's the square peg in a round hole & get a replacement. Most knew BA was going to throw the ball, then throw it some more. Just sayin

At this point it cannot get any worse, so why not see what the young kid from Indy can do. You hae to keep Levi on the roster through the end of the season just in case our scout team needs a crappy LT.

But we saw last year with out him that is actually could not get any worse. The LT play is on par with last season.

It's all about the Benjamin$.

They want to get some return on their investment, even if it means getting the qb injured.
