Going into the season I was thought the offensive line would be great, any ideas on why they are not playing to the level we know they can

October 22, 2013 by Mike Dussault

Vollmer, Solder, and Mankins have been pretty solid. Granted each has had their hiccups, but overall it’s hard to ask for much more out of them. Connolly and Wendell haven’t been good.

PFF has them as the lowest ranked players on offense, and both have matching -8.1s in pass protection. Connolly has been battling injuries for as long as I can remember now. Wendell was a great run blocker and average pass blocker last year, but he’s seemingly regressed.

I like Wendell’s chances of righting the ship a little better than Connolly’s. With Connolly it feels like he might just be best served as an interior swing guy. Maybe Marcus Cannon gets a shot starting for him again, but there’s not much depth to play with.

It’s way early but look for the interior offensive line to be an offseason priority.

Rapsheet says Gronkle is good to go…

Four days into 2010 camp, @WesWelker was on the field and off PUP. #Gronk could follow suit. But “no concerns” about the #Gronkle, I’m told — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) July 23, 2012
