Yet I believe that our running game would improve greatly if Big was playing LG instead of LT. He is playing well protecting the QB's weakside, but the middle of the line needs to be shored up before the ends.

Start Big at LG instead.
And who do you start at LT?! Wells? With that solution we will have crappy run blocking and our decent pass blocking will turn to poop.

Put Ross there when he comes back. He's a natural guard. He's played both sides. He's actually a decent run blocker from guard. Then we can run left as long as we just stop penetration on the right side. Elton, Fred, you don't have to move them, just stop them.

"Great" is subjective. We ARE talking about the Cardinals, here...

Good blocking, they run for a 1000, they sign somewhere else as a FA, they do nothing.

Yeah, where is that Quentin Griffin? I can't find him for the life of me on my fantasy football free agent list...wait, oh, there he is.

Wait...uhm...nevermind. He's on Team NOBODY, in the NFL DIDN'T WANT ME division.

Back to the drawing board.

Seriously...if people can't look at Denver and KC as having the best lines and ooops, omygoodness, the best RBs in the league, then it is all for naught.

Thank God Ladanian Tomlinson will break a hundred more tackles and make all you freaks think that is NORMAL for a RB.

More on the Thomas Jones topic, last season with the Bears he was 40 percent of their offense. That was second to Tiki Barber in the entire NFL. Tiki played 16 games, Jones played 14, but got hurt on the first play of the game in one of those. So basicly, he played 13 games.



Watchin the Bears offense last season you would know, that that offense was the worst offense in the history of pro football, or at least in recent memory. Seriously, they STUNK bad. They couldnt run block, pass block, and had the worst QB's I ever seen start so many games in Quinn and Kenzel. Those guys were turnover machines. Best wide reciever was David Terrell, who was cut my the Bears, and then cut by the Pats.

Now with upgrades at the wide reciever position, and a few tweaks on the offense line TJ is tearing it up with a rookie 4th round QB. Watching the Bears in recent weeks, the focus of opposing defenses is STOPPING THE RUN, yet the only team that could do that against them was the Redskins.

Regardless of what a lot of people think TJ is a good running back, and who knows how could this guy could be with the right people around him.

Ross has played all the postions on the line except for C. He was moved to RT with the Steelers.

Football is a funny game. The Bears can run the ball and stop the run and they are 1-3.
