Not that PFF is the end all be all of team analysis...  But check this out:  ?https://www.profootballnetwork.com/best-...-rankings/


The Jaguars and the Dolphins are in the bottom 3rd of the NFL in terms of O-Lines...  

Conversely, Atlanta is top 10 in O-Lines...

Oh the clots?  Also top 10, graded as 4th best.  And we [BLEEP] toasted them both times we played them...

Yet look at how well the clots are playing now.  And the Dolphins are a cinch for the playoffs.  Meanwhile, while we may not have a great O-Line, our O-Line is similarly as bad as the Dolphins, and yet the Dolphin's offense is still very dynamic...  Even with Tyree Hill out, they put the beat down on a Jet's D that is one of the great D's of the league...

Oh, and the Vikings also have a top 10 O-Line, and yet we have a better record they that team.

An O-Line, while important, can still be successful if the offensive scheme and play calling can keep defenses guessing.  When an offense is easy to read, it completely exposes

The Dolphins, Tua and Mike McDaniel's system are a very interesting outlier to study. 
You should look into the differences between McDaniel's scheme and Pederson's. 

Pederson's schemes last year were pretty similar...  We were dynamic.  We ran pre-snap motions.  We did crossers and ran deep routes constantly after the bye.

This year's schemes with Press?

The reason we are in this situation is because we've decided to stop playing a modern NFL offense.  It's not the O-Line that's the problem.  It's the fact that we put a new guy in as the OC that is coaching a system that is not capable of being successful given the talent and weaknesses of the team.

The fact that you can't see that isn't our fault.
