Re: McKinnie Getting Abused
Did something happen to Osemele on the injury front? If not, and the Ravens were opting to rest the rookie KO versus Oher, I think that's very telling.

Re: McKinnie Getting Abused
I get spoiled @ the games being able to zero in on one or a few players. Televised games take me right back to my 12 y.o. self, following the camera following the QB or ball carrier, w/ the rest of the action as background. But yesterday was one time when I was highly aware of Oher just standing around, off his blocks. Time to once & for all figure out what we want him to do for us (and if he can do it) before he signs another contract. Yeah, the OL is a priority in 2013.

Re: McKinnie Getting Abused
Ravens have a lot of work to do this offseason on BOTH the offensive and defensive lines
Oher is not a great LT but is far far from the worst in the league. Thats just crazy talk.
All you who were crying for McKinnie to start at LT and move Oher to RT..... well after yesterday you get why that never happened??? Its not that McKinnie was in Harbaugh's doghouse, its that he ate the doghouse.

Re: McKinnie Getting Abused
I actually think the DL has come along since early in the season. With Ngata and McPhee getting healthy and Jones coming a long, the DL isn't as bad as they looked before. Our problem is in the middle. Kemo is old and slow. And Cody needs a lot of work.
On the OL, I actually think we've got all the pieces except a LT. The right side of the line is set and Geno had a nice audition at C. LT is a definite need. LG you have to see what happens with Reid, or see if Oher or Osemele could be better at G, with the other playing RT.

Re: McKinnie Getting Abused
Agree with this assessment other than Geno. I like Geno but if a really good C were sitting there and there was not a guy there you like who could not play the middle of the DL or LT then I would pull the trigger on that C in an instant. I like Geno as depth moving forward to next year, not so happy with the idea of him starting tho. Little risky IMO

Re: McKinnie Getting Abused
Michael Johnson almost put McKinnie on his ass. ON ....HIS....ASS... Oher might get beat by speed rushers and edge moves, but never physically dominated face to face.
