Sundays game was graded out as one of the best of the season for us. We're currently 7th.

Disturbing for the defense, we played the teams ranked 28th and 31st, and managed only 1 sack vs each team. (They both rank at the bottom of the league in total sacks allowed by the way)

Seattle's game vs us was their 2nd best of the season. 5 times they've had single game ratings of 36.1 or less, they were above 60 for our game.

The Rams had 4 games under 28.6, they were 57.1 vs us.

Romo keeps the line from being 20-25th on that list, imo.

My index is simple. Sucks, or doesn't suck.

Our line is sucks.

Would disagree pretty strongly right now. There are running lanes there and the vast majority of time Romo has gotten excellent protection.

Holland has been a substancial improvement over Nagy, and Fiametta has had a major impact in the games he has played at FB. Both have helped the run game alot.

Depends on what you think excellent protection is. Romo evades pressure with ease most of the time. He's always been able to do that. I think the line would look a ton worse with a QB that couldn't move around like Romo does.

I don't think the offensive line just learned how to run block the last 3 weeks. I think it's been a combination of sub-par run blocking and Felix doesn't have anymore vision than Stevie Wonder.

Murray looks to have great vision and chooses the right hole more often than not. I think he has more to do with the running game improving than the offensive line does.

We still can't run when we get near the goal line. The OL is weak. Especially Costa. He's a bum.

I'd say

I'd say you are correct.
