OL

[Ed Hochuli 3:16]

That was, by far, the OL's best game as a unit all season BY A LANDSLIDE. The only player who had 2 or more false starts was Williams, and I think only Omiyale had the other.

 

Hell, it even rubbed off on the usual patty-cake Olsen, who smashed a Jet enroute to Forte's TD run.

Yes they played extremely well for the most part. They had some stupid penalties early though that set us back but I was surprised the Jets couldn't bring any pressure on Jay at all today. They really did their job today and hopefully that carries over into next week and in the playoffs. If we can get Jay protection like that in the playoffs, this team could reach the Superbowl.

I agree they played great!!! Cutler looked good as he always does when he has time. Williams, IMO, will get better at guard. He is essentially a rookie at guard so he is still learning. I was very impressed yesterday.

That's the key. Give Cutler time, give Forte and Taylor even a glimpse of a hole, and the offense has a great chance to succeed. It's all about the OL with this team. Only as strong as your weakest link.
