If you watched the game last night you should have easily seen how bad the O-line play is, mostly because of injury.
If you only watched Michael Jordan (lol) you'd see a guy totally overwhelmed. There are at least two tackle for loss run plays where he is with his guy in the backfield almost at handoff. Absolutely terrible.
the impact of injuries is unmistakeable because even with that kind of crap play, you could see the run game potential all night. Wirfs featured on a couple good runs and there were multiple creative, same formation/different run, plays, including the effective pony package and back to back plays with Irving moving under center.
The second best positive in a terrible game was the run game, first being the return of our WRs and most notably the incredible return of Evans (who almost had to leave the game because of a terrible high throw by Mayfield mixed with a low hit). Evans has 130ish yards, but he also must've drawn two or three holding penalties. Hilarious to watch him chirp at the overwhelmed DB
Its all too little too late, but at least there are signs of life on the offense.
Feeney and Jordan are backup/practice squad material for a reason. Its unfortunate to lose one starting guard in a season but losing both is just awful and part of the reason Baker has looked off all year. He absolutely does not feel comfortable in the pocket. There were a few run plays last night where they had 2-3 guys penetrate the o line in half a second, the RB's had no chance.

They were definitely an issue. Getting beat straight up, not picking up stunts, and not picking up blitzers.

agree with all of that
Barton also had his hands full last night but I assume some of that is the guys next to him
