I know that the oline has been hot garbage

Especially our over paid not talented tackles. But evaluate our guards.

Are Zeitler and Hernandez solid NFL players? If you were to put them with competent tackles would hey shine?

Halapio is just not worth mentioning.
Yes, they have not been good,

just one of those things, one one or two players looks bad up front, it makes the entire line look bad.
They'd fit in well with any other teams line. They are surrounded by

Poorly coached element of this team. Not sure what they do in practice but none of their blocking schemes work during the games. Therefore, making individual players look worse than they are.

of the draft, Sy56 told BBI members that the Giants should draft RT Braden Smith over Hernandez.

When you look at what Smith has done (taken by the Colts just after the Giants took Hernandez), it validates that Sy56 knew what he was talking about.

Not only was Sy56 right about the player, but we have seen league-wide the difficulty for teams to find outstanding tackles. Smith was the better player at a tougher position to fill.
Guards haven't been playing well all year long

Hernandez showed signs of leaking guys thru during the preseason and it has continued.

I don't ever see Zeitler getting much push and I know many have blamed the injured shoulder...

What are their blocking schemes I have no idea ..... I think Shurmur wasn’t kidding when he said he just hands it off to Barkley and let him find daylight
That’s pathetic

Actually, that is pretty much what the really good RBs do. The blocking scheme is designed for a certain result, but good defenses can ruin that. The great RBs see the hole as it is made and adjust to where the hole is. Kind of what jump cuts and counter treys do.

So it is not pathetic.

What is pathetic is the blocking.
