I don't know if you've ever watched a GOOD o line play like Cowboys but they OPEN HOLES.

Lenoard Fournette was the #1 high school player in America and #1 college RB in the country.

With this o line, Fournette is a plodder at below 4 ypc and without a few long runs Fournette made happen on his own, Fournette's ypc is among the worst in the entire league.

No.....the Jags o line is still terrible. They have improved since Cam Robinson replaced Joeckel but they are still terrible. 


OL needs 3-4 more good bodies in offseason.

The Oline has been terrific in pass protection (well, except when maybe Wells plays). 

I forget which TV announcer mentioned it. But, during a game recently, he was talking about how few sacks the Jags have given up and remarking about Bortles having time.

I do recall quite a few games thus season where BB was barely even touched the whole game. 

The Oline may struggle with a run game  (I don't think it's near as bad as what you claim),, but they've been great at protection.
