Kinda in between. He's a little better than Braxton in that area. It's funny, Braxton looks top heavy and Ozzy looks bottom heavy.

Just got done reviewing the left tackles. Braxton got 14 pass sets with two bad plays. One was the sack of Bagent. That play was disappointing because he made the initial block and lacked effort after. The second he whiffed on an inside block on a slight delayed rush. The smaller linebacker put cement in Braxton's shoes. He faced four bull rushes and handled them well. The other twelve sets were really good. He also played well in the run game. Ozzy got 16 pass sets with two bad plays. They were both outside rushes on his first two snaps. He cleaned it up after that, but they did have a back cup a couple times and a TE on another. Ozzy also played well in the run game. Overall, Braxton was slightly better in pass pro and run game. Braxton had the benefit of starting, so I look forward to Ozzy starting next week. Ozzy was better picking up the inside rushes. Seems like his lateral agility is better. Kind of an odd thing was Braxton made his mistakes late, while Ozzy made his early. After watching them both play, I feel Ozzy is closing the gap. The important thing to look at this week is his work on the outside. Braxton's conditioning needs to trend up, as this was his first week at full go.

To me, he looked too high and stiff with zero lateral agility. In almost every sport, it's butt down chest up with weight shifted to the balls of the feet. He looked like Frankenstein on that play. Stacey Dales said that this was the first week that he's worked at full speed. It doesn't look like he's there. I DVR'd the game and will review his and Trapillo's reps tomorrow. My wife is leaving for Chicago in the morning, so I'll have time on my hands.

He ain't ready. Terrible footwork...

The Canadian Eagle is playing well today.

He sucked eggs was the end of my quote. Does it get more definitive? Yes, he was beaten.

You just repeated what I said to you... Lol

That sack was on 74 giving up pressure up the middle. Braxton's guy caught him on the flush. Would've nailed him if he didn't move up. So yeah, Braxton sucked eggs... Lol

Newman and Benedet have looked good on the right side.

Surprised they haven't played Trapillo yet.

Did you just become best friends? I'm feeling the love!

Being a fan and former player, it drives me crazy. Wear the damn mouthpiece! It's part of the anti concussion protocol...🤯. My brain prays for you...🙏

I wouldn't last ten minutes...🤣

I stay busy but, I'm not as physically active as I should be. Getting ready to mow four acres though...

I'm going to look into the mitochondrial thing. Thank you!

I miss and love old kickoff from a viewers standpoint. Understanding the safety aspect, I fully endorse the new way of doing it.

I hope you're right. We should get more pressure up the middle as well. Dexter is going to be playing a lot of 1T this year, plus they'll move Dayo inside on passing downs.

Price keeps going up!

This is pretty fresh with me since I lost my Dad a month ago. All I know is that he and my mother would demand I be at camp. Nate Davis used it at an excuse to steal from the Bears. He proved that by his actions the following year. Zah will have his own circumstances. Hopefully he's in camp soon.

No, but I'm gonna leave it alone from here on out.

If ifs were fifths we'd all be drunk. How do you think it would play in the locker room? (Three year starter supplanted by a rookie that is not better) There's a reason SF had to trade Joe Montana away. If 71 is gonna get to 76, he's gonna have to do it in practice first. That's the depth we want to build, where the young bulls start moving out the old bulls. You gotta beat him first or the rest of the bulls don't buy it.

Nope. 73 always beats 71. Contract doesn't matter at all. The only way 71 takes over for 73 is injury or trade. Then you decide to sign, trade or let walk.

Side note: BJ said the Friday joint practice have been scripted, following several conversations with McDaniels.

I completely disagree. You must play the best player, period. That's football 101. Everyone is building for a Superbowl, so that analogy just doesn't fit. And We are currently ranked fourth in our division, so every win counts just to make it one rung higher to a wildcard. Having a ready player waiting in the wings is not a bad thing. The eagles had a young Cam Jurgens sitting behind an old Jason Kelce. Some could argue that Jurgens made the OL better. I know he was damn good in the Superbowl, plus he was all pro. He was a second rounder just like Trapillo. I also think Kelce was a fifth rounder like Braxton. Howie Roseman is showing the league how it's done. Maybe Poles is catching on and drafting them before you need them.

No, it's Zacheaus and Duverney as of now. They are clearly showing Scott the door. Now, I'm not saying they'll get more reps in games than Burden. But those dudes will get the start if of one of the first stringers go down. Once Burden gets his reps in, he should push one aside. Love the depth at the position. Back to OL. Many believe Trapillo will win the LT spot due to his draft status. We need to remember that he was moved to RT in college because he struggled at LT. Yes, that was early in his college career and he never moved back, so we don't know if he would've excelled there or not. He's gonna get a good long look Sunday and I can't wait to observe. I personally think Braxton should be the day one starter if 100! It's the safest choice.
