But, like Baseli said...before this game Walker had played 10 snaps at the position, and now he was expected to go up against one of the best defensive lines in football. He was poor, but the question is...CAN Walker be a good LG. I think he can. That said, I think that it's a waste having him play there if he has no future as the Jags starting left guard.
I think Walker can be an above average left guard, but it may take 2 more games. Remember, he just came back from an injury.
Robinson isn't going to be benched.
Whatever they do, the Jags cannot continue to allow the other team to tee off on TL like is happening. I really hope Doug, Press, Rausher and anyone else in the 904 area code that can add value circle the wagons and improve this line.

I really don't think you can nearly 11 weeks into the regular season. You can only plug and play with so many guys. The only real possibility is Cleveland being inserted at LG and we see hopefully an upgrade there.
Outside of that? You have to scheme around those issues. There's no other way to slice that. When there's a pothole in the middle of the road? You go around it in another lane or you continue to eat [BLEEP] every time you see it and bare with it.
That's fun and all until it takes a toll on your ride. Screen plays need to be called more frequently and executed more cleanly. There's opportunities there to help Lawrence out.
Running bootlegs and rollouts have helped in the past with Lawrence. Using more RPO has helped in the past with Lawrence. Failing to use additional blockers at the TE and RB position are also setting this team back.
They have to start getting more creative, not just with play calls, but, with actual formations, line-up situations and personnel management. All of this starts with Pederson.
