Just a general observation about players in general. Not saying anything positive or negative about Joeckel. There's a general over-reaction about players these days. Left tackles get beat by good defensive ends on occasion. Good corners get beat by good wide receivers on occasion. QBs throw incompletions and (gasp!) interceptions at times. That doesn't make them bad tackles, corners or QBs. These guys aren''t perfect and ALL of them will make bad plays on occasion.


You have to look at the overall body of work and see if they pass the eye test more often than not. I think Joeckel's done fine to this point and he's not someone I have any worries about.
