It'd be nice 2 c our O-Line take responsibility

Look at this quote from Dan Koppen of the Patriots:

 

“They pressured us a lot more,” said center Dan Koppen. “It comes down to having the right assignments and picking up the guys you’re supposed to, and I don’t think we did that well enough. (Brady) is going into that press room and take the brunt of it. That’s the kind of guy he is, but he shouldn’t have to. We’re all in this together and this was a team loss. We don’t give him the time to make plays. That’s on us.”

 

That's after giving up 4 sacks on a day Brady dropped back to pass almost 40 time. Compared to our 4 sacks and numerous pressures on a day

 

Maybe if our offensive linemen had the kind of sentiment towards our QB's (and it's been more than just JP over the past few years) and a little more pride, they might actually go out there and do their job for once, instead of being the laughing stock of the league.

 

That's what's wrong with this f'in team. The area that is the root cause of all of our offensive problems won't even acknowledge publicly that they are the problem. You hear other folks (who actually have the balls to talk to the media like Evans and McGhahee) always referencing the fact that they've got to protect the QB better. You also hear the coaches talk about how we have protection problems. You hear JP talk about how there are mixups but never come out and name someone, but always point the finger at himself. But you don't ever hear that from the offensive linemen about why they can't do their job. Only crap I heard out of them was during the bye week about how they are excited with the change and can't wait to play. Let's start making these pieces of crap start coming up to the podium each week and explaining why they can't do something they are being paid millions to do. I know one likes to play chess (Melvin Fowler), and another always talking about he thinks he's doing pretty well (Jason Peters) and others on their bowling excursion. Maybe if Peters thinks he's doing pretty well, he needs to light a fire under the rest of his cohorts who obviously aren't. It is not always on the QB. Sooner or later, individuals need to be accountable for doing their jobs, and the most glaring example of it on this team is our offensive line and the fact that they have no pride whatsoever.

It's different, though. The Patriots have a very good line and therefore they can accept responsibility for a bad game without fear of being cut. The Bills have pieces of crap on the line who are fighting to stay in the league. You can't expect them to come out and admit that they suck. They'll lose their job. Light a fire under their butts? Ha. It'll be like lighting cow turds, interesting to see for a few seconds, but ultimately useless. A motivated turd is still a turd. They need to improve the talent here, period. Marv was an idiot this offseason but hopefully he'll learn.
