So much talk about rotating the OLine

fireitup77 : 11/15/2020 6:12 pm
But they didn't do it. No tackle rotation or guard rotation. There were no changes until Zietler got hurt.
All due respect, youre mistaken...

Peart came in early for Fleming.
Yes they rotated

the Tackles. Not sure I saw the OGs do it until Zeitler got clocked.
Peart played some

As an extra lineman. But the oline remained constant until Zietler got hurt.

I don't know what that means. But all week we herd 3 for 2 at OT and guard. Didn't happen.
The other JJ strategy  
KeoweeFan : 11/15/2020 6:40 pm : link
is multiple personnel options week to week depending on matchups with opponents.
Clearly there was a RB rotation.
Why didn't Hernandez start today?

Was that mentioned in the pregame? I missed the pregame today and the first few plays.

Peart came in for Fleming for one series.

Tehre should be a RB rotation. I don't think any one of them is capable of carrying the full load. The current use of the RBs is certainly working. I csan't agree with the same idea for the OL.

You are correct. End of the third beginning of the fourth. Short series. Much less rotation than the previous weeks.
What I don't get re:Peart/Fleming  
Matt M. : 11/15/2020 8:44 pm : link
is that Fleming doesn't seem to factor as a potential starter beyond this year, although he should stick as a backup. But, he also has looked bad this year and Peart has looked good in limited action. But, Fleming has been so bad this year, that he makes no sense in the short term or long term. So, why rotate. Just play Peart.

At least with Lemieux/Hernandez/Zeitler you can Zeitler started to look a little better and Hernandez still has hope to be a starting OG for this team. SO, I wouldn't agree, but it's not crazy to continue to look at all 3.
I'm not so sure Peart had  
section125 : 11/15/2020 8:45 pm : link
a good day today. Believe he gave up at least one sack.

He didn't, but he was barely in and didn't start, which is a tough spot for an OL to come in to. Regardless, on the whole, his play has been much better than Fleming's.
I agree with the OL rotation.  
TheEvilLurker : 11/15/2020 8:51 pm : link
I think its great. First, all the players get the reps in, which they so badly need. 2nd, if a player is injured, then a player can come in and not miss a but, like what happened when Zeitler came out. 3rd, defensive players do not know who they are playing against, so they have to check out multiple players, which takes time away from only one player or schemes. 4th, because there are multiple players, it gives the o-line an advantage, because defensive players cannot look at one player the whole game and figure them out.

Point is that it didn't happen today. Zeitler got hurt. WH came in to play LG and Limiex moved to RG. Unfortunately Lemiex didn't play very well at RG.
