Quote:In comparison to one another an argument of 8 guys can be made to be elite. However if we go off of the standard idea of what we consider elite play in the league I can only count 3 guys Tyron, Joe Staley and Peters. 

 

Those are the only guys I see actually comparing to Ogden, Tony, Matt Light etc... 

 

Tackle play is just horrible right now. I wonder if there is a correlation between that and the down qb play as well?
 

I think it's a combination of a couple of things, teams are throwing the ball more so there's more opportunities to get after the QB, and the pass rushers in today's NFL are getting freakier (athletically) every year, trying to block some of these athletes is almost impossible for anyone.
