Jason Brown

[RockinRam]

I remember last year Jason Brown was having a very solid year in St. Louis, giving us fans hope that we finally have a mauler in the middle to help Jackson out, unlike the past journeymen we had at center (Leckey, Romberg). We finally had faith that we found a center who could handle bigger tackles like Kris Jenkins and Haynesworth, unlike Mr. 270lb Nick Leckey.


However, is it just me or is he regressing? I understand he gets little help from his guards, especially right guard Adam "Why am I still starting" Goldberg, which might be putting some pressure on him. However, he still contributes to a part of our interior line woes, especially when run blocking. I don't see our interior line getting any push, and when I go back and watch Brown, he really isn't getting much push either....


In my opinion, he's having an off year. We draft or sign a big mauler and insert him at RG, and Brown and the interior suddenly becomes much better.

The problem is that the o-line has basically been playing as one unit with all the starters this whole season. Renardo Foster was inserted in a few times, but other than that, they have had plenty of time to gel.

I don't think its a matter of working well together as much as it is a talent question. If you have a couple of roster-fill players on the starting line, your going to have inconsistentcy. We need one more decent pickup in the off-season, preferably a run blocking specialist. We don't need to pay someone 10 million/year, just a smart pickup.

Jason Brown is still playing decently and is having an off year by all accounts if you ask me. Goldberg needs to resume his role as a backup for this team and im not sure what you do with Bell. Offensive line's interior definitely needs to be addressed again this offseason.
