All of our problems on offense stem from the two Guard positions.  When Daryl Williams kicks inside, make that one Guard position.

However, when Williams kicks inside, Brown is at RT.   Rookie with a lot of talent, but still a rookie.

Feliciano and Boettger are backup level players and Ford has apparently become unplayable.

Also, Morse is a pass pro Center who struggles in run blocking.

Add all of that together and we have an OL that struggles in short yardage, and when they give up pressure, it’s typically through the interior of the line.

If we could run with a RB in short yardage and Allen had more time to scan the intermediate to deep routes, with these WR’s, our Offense would be unstoppable.

We’re not a dink/dunk offense, but we’re going to have to be in some games, at least for a period of time, and pick our shots - instead of Allen going through a built in deep read on almost every play.

OL’s can get better with continuity, but these guys have known each other for a while and the same issues are the same issues.  If we don’t make a trade, have to hope Brown continues to improve with experience and Dion gets back to his usual ability pre-covid hospitalization.  Those are the two spots I can see definitely improving as the season goes on.
