What yall gotta understand is that injury was the worst case scenario. It not just put our 8th best guy in the game, but it impacted every position except center. Literally everyone outside of Linthicum had to play a different position.
OL is complicated. There is a reason all the stupid kids play DL in high school. There are complex calls that have to be made and a lot of problem solving that has to happen on the fly. That just couldn’t happen.
I have no doubt that we run it fairly well if that doesn’t happen. Mafah simply had nowhere to go. I don’t blame guys for screwing up positions that they don’t have a ton of experience at.
That being said, if you are complaining about our depth issues, you are totally justified! Blast away!
