Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 3149543, member: 405"] With respect to Cavanaugh's coaching, I kind of hate seeing him dragged like this. The guy has a 20 year background, and our O line was definitely better in 2018 than it had been in the 2 preceding seasons under Dino, even if Dungy's running bailed us out on many occasions. That said, I find it kind of shocking that we are still this bad this far into the season. So maybe there's something to that. We lack toughness, and there seems to be too much confusion over the basics. I lay a lot of this on Servais, personally. If you can't protect up the gut (and if you can't move people out of the way in the middle) you're not going to be very good. It's more than half the season, and I feel like he still doesn't know who to block when the opponent blitzes up one of the inside gaps. [/QUOTE]
