Can anyone tell me why this can't be a very solid O line for the Rams?
Bottom line: There is no reason!
I love the fact that the "experts" have condemned this line to the lowest bowels of blocking hell. Nick nailed it on the head...

I can actually hear Berman's voice and Salisbury's voice saying those exact words in my head.

This is a decent line. In fact, I like this line better than last year's line.
04 Orlando Pace vs. 03 Orlando Pace - He says he's quicker now and he was All-Pro last year
04 Chris Dishman vs. 03 Andy McCollum - Dishman is a bigger stronger body that will be harder to push around and Dishman will not be having to report the blocking schemes to his center as McCollum had to last year
04 Andy McCollum vs. 03 Dave Wohlabaugh - Wohlabaugh did not pick up on the schemes as quickly as hoped and it showed. McCollum knows them inside and out
04 Adam Timmerman vs. 03 Adam Timmerman - a year older, but no significant difference
04 Grant Williams vs. 03 Kyle Turley - an underestimated above average tackle with a big heart takes over for an overrated above average tackle with a big mouth

I think the line is better and will enjoy saying so at the end of the year when the "experts" have to eat their words.
