I had to chuckle at the NFL's new strategy of 3 preseason games but I wasn't expecting to see what was formerly game 4 of the preseason as game 1!! Some of the O-line play was so bad that I couldn't tell which fool was bowled over. I don't know why Zimmer is ticked. He sent scrubs on defense out against the Bronco's first team. The safety is on Zimmer. He stated all preseason that the O-line was just fine and the Offense placed 5th instead of stating 11th. If you're going to waltz DD out there at guard you could expect holding calls, being bowled over, AND at least one completely idiotic mistake. Everyone knows the guy isn't an NFL-caliber guard.

I will say, based on Darrisaw not being available and Wyatt Davis on 3rd team, though he is better than Dozier, we need to take some of the money and find a L-tackle Russel Okung is still out there. Its bad enough the Bears beat us to our would be QB, they also took one of the last LT s on the board!!

My final comment is that the O-line woes are on Zimmer as well. He has everything he wanted on Defense. He has persistently ignored the O-line. Look at the number of FAs signed for the Defense comparatively... we couldn't get at least one more decent O-lineman... average at least?

Maybe the title should rewritten to say "A bunch of players who sucked and one or two who were actually decent"

The bright side is the Dakota Dozier experiment might end sooner than later
