From what I heard on the radio, it sounds like Clements' days as our starting RT are coming to an end. Same with Spikes. Hell, the entire o-line was terrible. Was NE that good, or is our o-line that bad. These guys are huge and very strong, but they never seem to hold their blocks for very long. Sure McCown had a few picks, but he had zero help from his lineman. Green says he will make changes, and I hope he does. I think the vast majority of fans on this board were not thinking playoffs, but having a competitive team every sunday. The single two biggest needs to address next year are both sides of the line of scrimmage. Run/pass blocking, and run stopping/ pass rush. I would not mind right now if they use all 2005 draft picks on these areas.

I wonder if they can slide AC to gaurd and put LJ at RT. A little shake up is in order. I'm glad we acctually have a coach who is not afraid to shake it up.

I would like to see Shelton at RT and Clement at RG. BUT, after Clements performance today he should be benched.

Who's his backup? Is there even anyone we could realisticly replace Clement or spike with? Sad really, we should have been more proactive in getting a FA lineman or two.

It seemed like every time there was pressure it was from the right side of the line. Terrible. McCown had nowhere to go and was running for his life a good portion of the game. Let's see Shelton!!!
