Farm Bureau Property and Casualty Insurance Company Western Agriculture Insurance Company. It's time for Power Hour. Hello and welcome to Power Hour. Today we are doing offensive line, the boys in the trenches, the boys that don't get enough respect, the boys that do the dirty work. They don't get all the glory in the fame, but they're the reasons a lot of offenses succeed. But I have one question for you, can you feel it? I feel the power. Can you feel it? I feel it. This is Power Hour. Power Hour, it's our fourth Power Hour episode? Yeah. I'll tell you, I'll be honest with you, this one was probably the toughest one so far. For me to do, yeah, I just, I don't pay as much attention to offensive line maybe as some of the skill positions and stuff like that, but how to do a little more research. And so, don't have a whole lot of, not as descriptive as the previous three, but we're to make it work today. Yeah, don't forget to follow us on all of our social medias, keep up to date with us. We do appreciate you guys tuning in, taking the time to listen to our personal takes on stuff. Yeah. And if you don't like it, that's fine too, you can always let us know too, if you think Sam's doing a bad job, I'm doing a bad job. Yeah. That was your day, that was your week. Day was good, it's Monday. One of those days, I mean, I just got done lifting, so I came straight here from the gym. There's some interesting things that happen in the NFL world today. CDLAM, getting in that contract. CDLAM finally got his contract extension, the chief signed Juju. Jerry Jones finally took his meds. Jerry Jones finally wised up. Yeah. Juju got signed by the chiefs yet again. You told me Tim Patrick got cut by the Bronco, so that's, some of these things could have affected our receivers list, but too late now. The Lions cut Daniel, people, Donovan, people with Jones. Donovan, I don't know why I think. And the Packers got quarterback Malik Willis in a trade with the Titans. Which was kind of surprising, but like, considering their backup area is not very good. Sean Clifford is not good. Michael Pratt has shown better flashes than Clifford, so I could see him being third-shanger practice squad, and Malik Willis being the primary backup to Jordan Love. And you know, I'm not too surprised Tennessee traded Malik Willis, just because they got Will Levis, the starter, and they have Mason Rudolph now, I think as their backup, as their primary backup. So Rudolph lasted in the league a lot longer, I thought he would. Yeah, he didn't do too bad down the stretch for the Steelers last season, leading them to the playoffs. Yeah, you know, he doesn't, he just got caught by the Bills in the first round. He got tired. He got tired of Miles Garrett, so he's like, I ain't going to get my head beat again. Yeah, that's right. So. But. So we're going to go ahead and get into it. Yeah, from 32 all the way to one. Now these are based off our own opinions. That's right. You want to start a kill or you want me? I'll start it. Go for it. Oh, the good old laptop here. Starting on my phone here. At number 32, I have. I have the near Giants. New York Giants. Okay. You know, the last few years they have not been pretty good. So, I mean, it's almost like, all they've done in the last two years is add a new center, which is fast free to see and, you know, he's an all right player, but you ain't going to, one guy ain't going to cut it. Well, you just think about how good a specific offense has been in recent years. Their offensive line has probably not been that good either. Wow. Like they're synonymous with each other. Like if an offense is productive, more likely than not, they have at least a half decent O line. And the Giants have not been that. I mean, 2022, okay, but usually not that great. I got the Patriots at number 32. I just think Patriots have not done well on any of these lists for me so far. They're running back was okay, quarterback was low, receivers were last, an offensive line. I have them in last. Again, it's synonymous with how their offense has been really ever since Brady left. They've had some flashes here and there with Cam Newton and Mac Jones, but his rookie year, but outside of that, I mean, going into this year, it's not looking pretty for them. So I got Patriots at 32. Patriots is key against slam bias. Honestly, man, I mean, they're not doing themselves any favors either though. You want to go ahead and give your number 31 31, I've got Washington commanders. I'm surprised by that one. I mean, they've struggled keeping quarterbacks up right in recent years. I mean, you think about last year, I mean, Sam Howell was fairly durable, but like the past couple of seasons before that Carson Wentz was their primary guy, he went down before that year. His Patrick, he went down and Taylor Heineke kind of had to shoulder the load for them at quarterback, but yeah, Washington commanders at 31, 31, Kale. I have the Cardinals last year, they added a tackle, they didn't do too bad this year. They also had added a, you know, another tackle, but he's going to come up to the right side versus the other one. At the left side, yeah, and you know, I don't know, there's not much to say about them. It's the Cardinals as long as they can. And they have a mobile quarterback in Tyler Murray. Yep. And that can help. Like if you have a lackluster offensive line, if you have a quarterback who can move around, that makes it a little bit easier to kind of, I guess, hide those weaknesses within the O line. If you have a quarterback who can scramble around and avoid the pressure a little bit. At 30, I've got the Giants. Again, you really, you really hit on it pretty good earlier with your 32 ranking. Going into this year offensively, there's just not a lot going for them outside of rookie wide out Malik neighbors. So that's my number 30. What do you got at 30? I was a dirty one. Commanders. Oh. Oh, yeah. I knew England. They've only added two players on team, you know, if you came to Wallace and that cast off from sealers, I can't remember his name, that's a weird name. One of those weird names, I know this kind of looking at some of the names for some of these old line minutes, like old line minutes specifically, they have some weird names. 29, I got Tennessee Titans, just another team that's, I mean, they got some, they got some guys on the outside at receiver, but, you know, there's a reason why Derek Henry wanted out of there. And offensive line was kind of a part of it. They don't really have the winning culture they had a few years ago. They're kind of sus at QB, but it's that old line too. I mean, if you don't have a good old line block and few and you're older running back now, it's going to make it tough. So it's no surprise for me, so. I have the Cowboys, you know, Cowboys, like we talked about the other day when we were doing the wide receivers, they've been known over the years to have hell of a defense of line. Yeah. You know, Zach Martin, when he was there, I don't know if he still is. I value him out of the tire for some room, look that up. You know, they have, you know, Tyron Smith, and they got to Reese, their parent's steel and Tyler Guidane. They still there. Yeah. But, you know, they, again, I had the Cowboys decent amount higher, but I agree they've they've definitely not as good as they want. I look at it. It used to be top five, you know, I look at it too. You know, it's like Jerry Jones. What is Jerry Jones doing as an owner and a GM? Yeah. Jerry Jones, I think we all know that Jerry Jones doesn't make a lot of moves until Jerry wants to move. He'll he'll be the first to let you know he knows what he's doing. Yeah. Yeah. But sometimes it's, you know, is it really no what he's doing? Right. Look how long it took him to get to see the land extension. He sound like he wanted to re-sign him because it's just more money out of his pocket. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Number 27. I had Seattle Seahawks. You skipped 28? No. Yeah. No. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Number 28. I had. Your commanders, you know, you hit it pretty well, they just, they really haven't added a whole lot this year. No. You know, last few years they haven't really been doing very well. You know, they just always see the quarterback get her getting hurt or scrambling. Dating back to the days of RG3? No, you're going to give them PTSD. Uh, I got the Saints at 28. Okay. Uh, yeah, I mean, they just, again, it's one of those teams that struggled a little bit more offensively. Uh, you know, Alvin Khmer is great, but he still hasn't rushed for over a thousand yards in a year. And even late in Drew Brees, you know, career, he was, uh, fighting some injuries, you know, struggling to stay upright. Part of that had to do with their own line. So I have the Saints at 28 at 27, I have the Seahawks, you know, they added, uh, Lake and Thompson and Nick Harris, I think Nick Harris, right. And, uh, I mean, they didn't really have much on the offensive line. It pretty much, it seems like they've had the same units forever. They're loaded at the skill positions, but they lack in the, in the old line department. Yes. Um, I agree with that. I got the Raiders at 27. They're just kind of struggling all over offensively. So, uh, you know, really the only bright spot going for them is one, Devonta Adams and, um, an interesting rookie in Brock Bowers, but outside of that, the rest of it is just kind of, we'll see. I do like Antonio Pierce, a head coach though, for them. 26. I got the Cardinals though. You had them a little earlier. You kind of hit the nail in the head. Um, yeah, I'm the Coven. But, uh, the same thing with, you know, I'll bring up Tyler Murray, you know, when you have a weaker offensive line, when you have a quarterback that can move around a little bit better, it kind of hides those weaknesses a little bit more. So that's at least something that they got going for them. And they got a decent unit of skill guys with James Conner at running back Marvin Harris and junior, you know, at their number one wide out, Trey McBride at tight end, but, you know, that, that could mask some of their problems at offensive line, but I have the Cardinals at 26. What about you, kill? I have the titans, titans, tittins, tittins, tittins, that haven't been the same since Taylor the one. True. Their tackle position on the left side has got awful. Last year, I think they're ranked from last. Yeah. They added somebody in the draft, but how much is one person, you know, uh, J.C. Let him, um, but that's just one rookie trying to improve the one whole, the whole offensive line. Yeah. True. So who else is going to take? But it should never gotten rid of Taylor the one and I'm not trying to be in the half history because it's robusting with the boys and I enjoy the podcast. He's a skilled offensive lineman. Yeah. He wouldn't played right now though. He's lost too much weight. Yeah. He's like skinny now. I think he's more focused on podcast, which is fun. He was a great, you know, left tackle, but he's not built like that anymore. No, you know, he's definitely, those days are definitely behind him, but in his, in his playing days, he was a dog. He was a dog. Although he went to Michigan. Yeah, I know. I hate Michigan. Uh, 25. I have the Seahawks. I got talked about earlier. They seem to have it made at the skill positions, even at quarterback, well, you know, Smith, whatever, whether or not we think about him, he's done saw the last couple of years, good running backs, good receivers, they struggle on the offensive line, no, but the, the good skill positions kind of mask it. So, uh, 24 or excuse me, you can do 25. I have Miami. Miami. Yeah. There, there are offensive lines that very healthy. No. And that's another team that I kind of look at. I mean, how many years ago was two years ago that to have had back-to-back cushions. Um, and they really haven't improved on it. A lot of these teams, like Miami is another one that is solid at the skill positions, but weak in the core where it matters. Like Mike McDonald's can, he can coach, he's proven that he just, he needs to get, but you know, they need to figure out what they need to do. Prioritize the, the O line a little bit more. Yeah. Um, 25, I got the stir, 24, I got the Panthers. Um, again, another unit that struggles offensively, Bryce Young is small. Um, kind of surprised you last through the whole year last year, there's a, there's a little bit of time there where the back of Andy Dalton had to come in and play. But the thing about him too, is he's small, but he's not the best runner. I don't know, we'll see, but I got the Panthers at 24. I have, uh, the Saints, you know, they kind of got hit hard a little bit with the one of the guards are tiring out with the season, off season, and then they got one of those dudes out of the, the draft, but Fuga, Fuga, yeah, but a lot of people don't think he's going to transition in well, or the whoever the starting one is. I can't remember. I keep seeing everywhere, but, you know, I don't see them do it a whole lot. Number 23, I have the bills, you know, okay. When it comes to like, big time plays, they struggle, they struggle, um, especially now, they would, they haven't done anything in the last season to change it. So I don't think they're going to move anywhere on my list for when we do in the mid season deal. That's true. And that, because of that, I may struggle to run the ball with James Cook and stuff like that. You know, Josh Allen's got to scramble and you know, that's how Josh Allen gets hurt. That's, yeah, exactly. Like he can, he's great at it, but he's, sooner or later he's going to get hurt badly. Yeah. 23. I got the Steelers. Um, I mean, last year, last couple of years they've been playing musical chairs at quarterback. They can't stay healthy. They can't keep their quarterbacks upright, you know, so it kind of has, they haven't really changed much going into this year. Um, then another one of those cases where they got some studs at skill positions running back and receiver, but can't find it, can't seem to find the answer at offensive line. 22, I got the Ravens, um, they're, I think they might be a little more underrated, but they still just, they get blinded by, or they get some of their struggles get blinded by the, the town they have with Lamar and the, you know, the outside weapons, all the speed they have. But when teams hear Ravens, they think of Lamar and non-derick Henry and they think of Smash Mouth football defense run the ball, Lamar, um, which usually is synonymous with the strong O line, but, um, I can guarantee you that when we do our defense, they're going to probably have a way better defense on our rankings and they're going to be, they're going to be in the top five or top 10 probably, uh, 22 kale Steelers, you know, they, they're expected, you know, they got some three first or second year players coming back, so there's a little bit of experience there, um, yep, you know, they got Zach Frazier, Trey Fontanue, uh, Project Jones, you know, they got a strong foundation for the future, did you just need like we keep talking about on these power hours, they need the quarterback, mm hmm, who can be the guy to throw the ball for the Steelers. Yeah. Yeah. That's honestly. Russer fields, or whoever, but those two don't work out. Kyle Allen, I think is their third string. Oh, geez, uh, 21, I got the dolphins. You pretty much hit the nail in the head with them pretty strongly earlier. I don't really need to go into much more detail there. 20 or who's your 21? Panthers. Panthers, you know, the painters are just terrible. Yeah. Do you see how many times Bryce Young had to get out of pocket and still can make a good throw? They haven't much done anything in recent years to really plead their case to be a solid team. No. Especially offensively. No. You know, Deontay Johnson, who they went out and got one receiver, who's fringe number one maybe. Yeah. Well, they also have DJ Sharp, who, who was good in Detroit, which if I don't know why he left, but he didn't. Yeah. He just never capitalized on it. Moving on number 20, the Bucks, um, they're probably the worst run block teams. Yeah. Honestly. Yeah. I mean, it's pretty much telling because Rashad White, even though he finished, I think just 10 yard short of a thousand last year, his yards per carry average was like below four. They did add a threes. They did add a guard in the season and they drafted a center. Yeah. So that should help. No. 20. I actually had the Jaguars, uh, Trevor Lawrence getting hurt last season is a telltale sign of that too. Like the Jaguars were on top of the AFC before he got hurt. And then when he came back, it was just too late and he was still kind of banged up. So I'd say the Jaguars, even with Travis Etienne, Jr, opening up running lanes for him last year, like he saw it a productive year, but a lot of that is because he's also effective as a receiver as well. And so yeah, I got the Jaguars at 20 at 19. I've got the Broncos, um, 19, yeah, at 19, I got the Broncos. Yeah. So, um, they, I mean, even the last couple of years, they struggled to protect Russell Wilson. Russell Wilson gets a lot of the blame for how poorly they've done the past couple of years, but a lot of that time he's running for his life, um, they can't keep running back healthy. Javonte Williams has been banged up. Um, so yeah, I've got Broncos at 20 or 19. I have the Raiders, you shaped like an egg still need not we say anymore. You know, they, they lost their starting tackle. They have someone that can fill, but is he going to do it well, right? You know, so I think if, if they can't figure out that tackle spot, that whole unit right there screwed. Yeah. So they need to go out, get a tackle, see, it's a guy can improve, move some people around if they don't. And like I said, that's good through 18 Ravens, I have the Ravens, um, they, they have three new starters on that, on that offensive line. Yeah. I didn't even mention that. Yeah. So it's going to be. You know, voting, we're new starters. That's, that might be a challenge. So might see, they might sometimes maybe good, sometimes it may be sheet, sometimes it may be good, sometimes it may be, I guess I got the bears at 18, um, kind of the running story with them is, you know, again, they've really done a great job at building around Caleb Williams with talented skill guys, but their offensive line has been a big question mark the last couple of years, even with Justin Fields there, whoever it is. I mean, yeah, he's done a great job running quarterbacks, having good running success isn't really synonymous with a great offensive line. There's a lot of that. It's scrambling a boarding pressure, um, Caleb Williams, he can move more of a pocket faster than Fields, though, um, have they added anyone, I mean, I'm not really sure. So you know, they, they, they're, they're probably going to be improved from the past couple of years, but it's still, it's up in the air on how they actually do or not. So, um, but they are a team that might have the skill positions to mask it a little bit. I still don't see them winning a whole lot of games this year though for the playoffs. 17, I have the Buccaneers, um, and I haven't ranked a little higher than you, but what, I didn't do anything. I thought you did. I thought you did the Ravens. Oh, yeah. I did. Go ahead. Sorry. So I had the Buccaneers at 17, um, I mean, you hit the nail on the head earlier, uh, you obviously follow offensive line a lot more than I do, um, so I'm just, I'm just going to leave it at that. Who are you at? At 17. I has the four Niners rare weakness for them, probably the biggest weakness on their team because everywhere else they're stacked. Even though they got the best tackle, the left tackle, Trent Williams. Yeah. Everything else is kind of a hot mess. They have a good pass block. Trent Williams kind of masks the problems they have on the rest of the line and so do the rest of the skill position guys, Christian McCaffrey, Debo, Kittle, IU, herdie now, herdie, you know, being a, you know, now a season vet, um, I actually have the 49ers at 16 starting the top half of the rankings. So yeah, we already kind of talked, talked about that. So who do you got at 16? Chargers. Okay. Yeah. That's a no brainer. Yeah. You know, the unit should really improve with that new draft pick of Joel Alt. So yeah. Who should, I think is replacing for Trey Pippkins. Pippkins. Pippkins. Pippkins. That should be a good little deal there. Um, number 15 Texans. Okay. Let's see, we're starting to get into the higher rankings now. So you're going to start here more positive things, Larry, tons, tonsill. You know, he, he remains elite. Um, he's probably still one of the best left tackle in the league and, uh, great job of protecting, protecting CJ Stroud last year. There is a, an abundance of room for them to improve this year. So I think they're going to do it. I got the bills at 15. I think they're a little bit better than kind of where you ranked them. I just think they did a good job of finally establishing a running game last year with James Cook and opening up holes for him to run through. Um, and keeping Josh Allen protected after developing said running game. They finally found a solid identity with their out, with their own line and their offense as a whole. And hopefully it continues for them going into this season because they're going to need it because they've lost some fire power at the receiver position. So 14, I got the chargers though. And you know, like you said, Joe out or Joe Alt Joe out, whatever, you should make a big improvement to their unit on the O line. Um, and they're going to need it again. They're, they're another team that's lost a lot of firepower on the outside and in the backfield. We'll see what they can do, but yeah, they got the chargers at 14. Go ahead, kale, um, 14, you go ahead 14. I already did 14. Oh, did my charges. You had charges at 15. You want me to do my 13? No, cause I'm lost. No, I try, I feel like I missed that team. 13, I got the bangles. Um, they're not great. They've had, they've struggled keeping burrow upright at times, but outside of that, I mean, they've been a productive offense in recent years and usually typically when an offense is productive, you have at least a halfway decent offensive line. So bangles at 13 middle of the pack. You got to figure it out yet. Some, some technical difficulties, please stand by the Vikings. Vikings at 14. Yeah, I was trying to figure who the fuck was missing. I had every team and I was like, good Vikings at 14. Yeah. Cause I put the Bears twice back, you know, I have Vikings a lot higher, but nice, um, you know, they had an all right offensive line. Not great. Not bad. It was a, it was a steady offensive line. Yeah. Yeah. I look at it. So I can't really say that this is on them, but like if the quarterback goes down with a big injury like he did, it falls back on the old line. Yeah. Because like the player in it don't really matter if they were scrambling, if they're way out of the pocket or whatever, like old lines, job is protected quarterback at the end of the day. So, and I have not really seen much improvement from their team, um, within the free agency and everything. So I'm kind of curious how in this year they're going to do a sand darrel since McCarthy's out. Yeah. Or Cardi. I mean, uh, I'm a cardi, not McCarthy. Oh, yeah. McCarthy. Uh, who do you got at 13? Broncos. Okay. Um, like you, you, you were saying about how protecting Russell Wilson. Yeah. But again, he also got to think too, Russell Wilson brought a lot of pressure on himself. He did, but he gets a lot of the blame for the last couple of years. And a lot of that time he's running for his life because of a piss, poor old line. Um, number 12, I got the Cowboys. I know you had them ranked a lot lower. Um, I think they're still a halfway solid unit. They're not great. Like they used to be, they're not blowing open holes in the running game, but they protect Dak well enough that he can get the ball to his playmakers and have a, you know, an all pro year, second team, all pro year, second place MVP. Um, and so going into this year, I think they'll still be solid. Again, I think it'll be, it'll be a struggle. They don't blow open holes in the run game like they used to and they don't really have the guys in the backfield like they used to. So running the ball is going to be a struggle for them this year and that might make their offense struggle just that alone. But we'll see who do you got at 12 Kale? I have bangles. Okay. You have them one spot above where I have them. You know, they added a veteran and they added a first round draft pick. But they need to start working on that left side again because Orlando Brown, you might not be cutting him in the mark. Yeah. So he's getting up there. Um, 11, I got the Texans. You kind of nailed it perfectly. Um, Laramie Tunsel, left tackle, um, great job protecting CJ Stradd last year. Helped him win a offensive rookie the year, dang near was an MVP candidate. Um, so great year out of him and, you know, I just see them improving, just kind of capitalizing on last year. So that's why I got it 11. Number 11, I have the Rams. They added Jon Jackson from Detroit, it was a stud for us, which he never left, but it is what it is. Yeah. I just find ironic and kind of hurts to say, Oh, I'm going to stay here forever. And then all of a sudden, Hey, fuck you, I'm out, you know, seems like the Rams get all the Alliance as bins, the Ryan's, the Ramlins, the Detroit Rams, Detroit Rams, you know, the Stafford went there and won a Super Bowl, you know, we're going to our top 10 now. We've got a 10 Kale, I have the cheese, despite winning the Super Bowl last year, you think I would have to see this team's old land rank higher wrong. The reason I ranked them where I did is because they had their struggles of protecting Patrick Mahomes for pass blocking just seems like Mahomes had ran out of pocket more than often than he usually should last season. I know that they have the best center in the league, but one, they got some studs on the old line. They, I know they had the best center in the league, but one person can't do it all again. You can come at me for this one, but small things matter. They got some studs on the old line. I got them ranked a bit higher, but it's, it's one of their tackles that would just do it. Yeah. Creed Humphrey is a great center and probably definitely the best in the league now since Jason Kelsie retired. Number 10, I got the Jets. Last year, obviously they were atrocious, obviously with Aaron Rodgers going down four plays into the season, they've done a lot to kind of bolster that unit this off season and then they start out my top 10 and you know, all signs are pointing to them having a solid year offensively should it all go according to plan. So yeah, I got the Jets at number 10. Number nine, I have the Bears. Chicago has a pretty solid line. The sign sheltered from the Rams or in the Oscars, which is huge yet for them. If there's one thing that will help make Caleb shine his rookie year, it would be the offensive line right here. I got the, that was your number 10. Yep. For your nine. Nine. Nine. Nine. I got the Falcons. Falcons, they've kind of made some improvements going into this season. They have a better, you know, they have a better quarterback, I guess, which they better be able to protect him because it's Kurt Cousins. He got hurt last year. You can blame that on the Vikings O-line. They can keep him protected, you know, he gets the ball to, you know, they have some explosive playmakers. Again, we've talked about the Falcons a lot. They have the potential to have a very explosive offensive here if things go according to plan. Number eight, I have the Colts. Um, gosh, the Colts have one of the best O-line men in the league at tackle. I forgot his name. What's his name? The Colts. Offensive tackle. He's like one of the best in the game. Uh, I think I wrote it down, yeah. Um, that's not who it is. Bernhard? That's not, no, he's a guard. Quentin Nelson. That's what I'm thinking of. Quentin Nelson, one of the best offensive linemen in the game, um, he leads that unit and, uh, yeah, Anthony Richardson got hurt last year. The gardener meant you, I think that's more of, uh, Richardson getting hurt. I think that's more on him being that style of quarterback, running the ball, trying to be a physical runner. I realize we're on my list. I didn't say anything about the Jaguars, but they are pretty close to it in any way, so. You have them up pretty high? No. No. Yeah. Well, again, back to the Colts, uh, Anthony Richardson, having gotten hurt last year. I don't think that's so much on their line as much as it is on his style as a quarterback, being a runner, physical runner, trying to break tackles back to his days in college. That's kind of how he did it, uh, cause men's shoe stayed healthy pretty much all year after Richardson went down. So they did a good job keeping gardener men's shoe healthy, um, and if Anthony Richardson can become more comfortable in the pocket, I think that they'll, they'll do a good job of keeping him upright as well. And also blowing open holes for star running back Jonathan Taylor. So I got the Colts at eight. Who do you got? Eight kale. Packers. Okay. Um, I think it could be a little bit better, but I mean, you know, they still got John run in. I call them the run and fun. Um, but now he was splitting time too at the end of the season. I know you know that. Yeah. They have one of the most verdict, er, vertical, versatile old lineman, Elton Jenkins. Yeah. Didn't you guys draft an alignment? And I told you he got upset Jordan Morgan, he's going to start a guard for us, even though he was a tackle in college, which I think is kind of weird, but hey, I mean, he could have played guard at one point. He could have. I mean, if you're an old lineman, you should be able to play anywhere on the one. The line except maybe center because you have to snap it, but I don't know, guards. One thing tackles another thing. It takes a certain skill set for each, but your best offensive lineman can play anywhere. And like I said, Elton, Jekyll, well, the Packers are, well, I'll just, I'll get to that when I get to it. I got the Packers a little higher. I got the Vikings at seven though, and you kind of touched on that pretty well. Vikings, I mean, even though cousins got hurt last year again, that does fall back on them. It'll be interesting to see. I think they have a solid unit though, offensively, just all around. I think they have the pieces. It just comes down to quarterback really if Donald can get it done for them this year. And then I have, well, go ahead with your number seven. Yes, yes, nice. You know, they, they're gaping Tyrone Smith healthy, so yeah. Yeah. So I got the Packers at six. I think, oh, I will say though, I think they're going to have one of the most proved lines here. The Jets for sure. I got the Packers at six. One thing I wanted to say is I think they have one of the most versatile offensive lines in the league with meaning like a lot of their guys can play multiple positions on the line. And I brought up Elton Jenkins, Billy Turner, their new, their center that they draft a couple of years ago, Jake, I forgot his name, he played at Ohio State with Justin Fields. And then yeah, they drafted Jordan Morgan in the first round. I was kind of disappointed in that pick, not going to lie, but maybe he'll do good. Zach Tom at tackle. I need to look up the name of that center. Oh, no momento, please. Josh Myers, that's who it is. So Josh Myers has done a solid job as our starting center since Jordan and the team. Yeah. You guys aren't bought to Ari anymore. You got rid of Bakhtiari. I mean, he was nothing but just, it wasn't doing anything for us anymore. I don't think he's even on a team. No, he was a good player. He just he was a great player, injury player, great player. But he got hurt and he was never back. And it was just more of a what do we have in that cap hip than anything? What are we doing at this point? Yeah. So he was great when he was healthy, one of the best offensive lineman. The Packers have had. We've had some good ones too, but yeah, he was a solid left tackle. Who do you got at six? So since I messed up the Jaguars talk, mine's got to off a little bit now, which is fine. So they're supposed to be actually be number five. The Jaguars? No Falcons. Oh, okay. At five. Yeah, I'm just going to do Jaguar is an armor dimension at this point because we're so far into it. I mean, they are an honorable mention. I had them at 19, I think, so they didn't have a great ranking. No, I had them at 20. Well, I guess my number five would be the Falcons. Okay. Although the Falcons don't didn't do too hot last year, they're offensive line finish in the top five or 10, I believe they will have five returning starters from last year who can we also can we also cannot forget that there will be new faces in different positions that will help the team get back on track yet the Rams at five. You talked about it earlier. I think they did a great job last year. You know, the Rams face some controversies early on. Stafford was kind of banged up, but down the stretch, they had a good job keeping them upright. Blaze and holes open for Kyron Williams, who became the true number one back for them. And they made a playoff run. So I got the Rams at five. Number four, I got the Browns. Same. That's kind of surprising. I'm not going. Yeah. I mean, they're solid unit. I mean, the Browns have a solid team, really. I mean, Nick Chubb's going to be out the first four games of the year, but Jerome Ford is a solid backup. I tell you what though. It really comes down to DeShawn Watson for the Browns and if he can, you know, come back to his old ways as a elite quarterback. I'll tell you what. The reason why I ranked Cleveland high on this list is because when they're healthy, when they're a healthy unit this year, the line is going to be good. Last year, I might have had some ups and downs, but this online made it to a 2022 playoffs. Not to mention, they had old men flack out at the Reigns of quarterback. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. They did, didn't they? After three, I got the Chiefs. I think they're a really good unit. They're kind of what helped make that offense go last year outside of my homes, in my opinion, because of the lack of production at wide receiver outside of Rashi Rice, Travis Kelsey. Isaiah Pacheco had almost a thousand yards on the ground and they kept my homes upright. You know, yeah, he might have been scrambling out of the pocket and stuff a little more, but that's also his style of play. He's a gunslinger. He runs around. Creed Humphrey, best center in the league, a couple of other studs from them, Joanne Taylor at Wright Tackle, Joe Thunee at left guard. So they got, they got some, some studs up there. Who do you got at three Colts? Nice. Yeah. They have a solid unit. I might have had them a little low at eight. I mean, I digress. I mean, you had a nail in the head, like, nail in the coffin there, I mean. Yeah. You had a developing, you know, a developing left tackle. That's true. And like I said, I don't think Anthony Richardson's injury last year was necessarily on the offensive line. It was more on Richardson's play style. At number two, I have a Philadelphia. Me too. I think they'll still have, despite Jason Kelsey retiring, but they, their whole group collectively, they, I mean, Tush Push, Tush Push last year was successful for a reason. So what I wrote down is when Kelsey retired last season, it was too, not too big of a shock that he is going to, you know, retire, but it's still a big loss for the Eagles. But not to worry, the backup center, Camp Jurgens, who played for Nebraska, has shown that he can fill the shoes that Kelsey once filled. What I will say is this, they could run the Philly special, people overlook the blocking that takes place when they get either a first down or a touchdown when they run that play. That's why that play happens. Yeah. For sure. You nailed it. You nailed it. And I had the Lions at number one. Me too. And, and I'm not being biased because I, they're my team. They're not my team and I had them at number one. But when people want to talk about Jared Goss, bounce back in Detroit, they seem to forget about the old line. Sure we lost Jackson now season, but we added, you know, a veteran in a Kevin Zilter who were full of role well at right guard. The Lions had a great run, a great run and pass block to make some great plays even on special teams when they would run a fake punt again, not being biased because Detroit is my favorite team. There's a reason why the Lions, you know, arguably had one of the, if not the most balanced offenses in the league last year in terms of being able to run it, being able to throw it. You know, Jared Goss have an all day. David Montgomery, Jameer Gibbs, having huge holes to run through really brown and yeah, them and the 49ers probably had the most balanced offenses in the league. But the Lions just really had a lot more to do with their line. Um, yeah, I mean, I think, yeah, good pick. I don't think people are going to like that, but I mean, I don't know, I think, I think a lot of people would agree. I think most people would have either the Lions or the Eagles at number one and we had a they've had a dominant offense of my last two years. They have. And like I said, that's why they're able to kind of do whatever they want offensively and they're so balanced because of it. They had two Russ years. They had Montgomery who went over a thousand and Gibbs had almost a thousand. Probably with the playoffs had over a thousand, but what I like about Dan Campbell, he likes to use everybody. And Jared Goss, he's got a clean pocket to throw from because he's not a guy who's going to run all over you. He's not going to scramble a lot. He's going to sit from the pocket. He runs like Tom Brady. Exactly. He's a pocket passing game manager field general. He's not Lamar. He's not Mahomes. He's not Josh Allen. He's Tom Brady. He's similar style to a Tom Brady or a yes, he is. He's that style, you know, Joe burrows kind of similar. Joe burrow can run a little bit better, but he needs a clean pocket to throw from. And, you know, he did that last couple of years and it's because they have a solid offensive line. Yeah. So that's our, our, our offensive line rankings. That one went quicker than most sides, but I kind of, I kind of thought it would. I just think there's personally me. I don't have as much to talk about. I don't get quite as into it as the, the skill guys. I mean, this is our first year doing it too. So like next year, we have a better chance to. That's true. Yeah. I mean, there's always room for improvement no matter what, but so like, like quarterback we could do like, Oh, we can look at like starting quarterback and then who's his backups? Like that can really affect the ranking right there. The whole quarterback room. Yeah. Yeah, that's an idea. But I'll say that. I mean, um, yeah, we got defense and special teams next. I think that'll be a fun one. And then that will wrap up our preseason power hour NFL rankings preseason NFL. We NFL kickoff preseason. Yeah. First cluster games this weekend versus UTEP. I'm actually going to it. Oh, yeah. Yep. Thought about going to it. My sister has tickets and she wanted to give one of them to my dad for a birthday present. My dad turned 63 last week, um, but he doesn't want to go. I guess. Cause it's supposed to be kind of hot. The thing I'm going to go with my brother probably, but it should be fun. I've never went to an opening day game. I've only been to one game in my life and I've been to 10 games in my life. And I think I'm pretty good luck as we won seven of them. I mean, it's UTEP. It's UTEP. But I mean, I never know. We've underestimated teams before and it's lost. So we lost to Georgia Southern a couple of years ago. So I think we're a lot better than we were then. But still, you never know. That was also Scott Frost era. Did you, did you hear us, um, Vance's predictions? I did. Do you like it? I did like it. He's only optimistic and I like to be that way too. I mean, he's got us winning. I mean, only losing to what Ohio State and USC right now. So that's a solid year for us. I mean, I got to think, I think we might lose Oregon to be honest. Yeah. We'll see. Yeah. It'll be, uh, it'll be, it'll be a fun season. I'm excited for football to be back. Definitely. Don't forget to follow us on all of our social medias at the TNT boys pod, uh, our podcast. Pick up agent life media. Yep. Watch some of their podcast touching base. Use assumptions. Talking dirt. All of them. Go. Shut them up. Give them a listen. We got a bit of everything. Follow them. We got a bit of everything throughout the whole. We are the Midwest Marshall. I'm kidding. We're not. I can say that. Oh, man. And it's just we're trying to help everybody grow. We're all doing this together and, um, you know, kind of honestly was a quick podcast. Was a quick episode, but that's all right. That's probably a good thing because it's called power hour. Not power. I know. I know. It goes over. It goes over. I mean, yeah, I mean, I'm not beaten. I'm not beating myself up over it, but it was a nice, it was a good quick one. You know, it's offensive line, not the sexiest position. A lot of people want to hear about the quarterbacks are running backs and the receivers. I don't think defense is going to take along either personally, but defense and special teams. I mean, again, it's just going to be a, you want to explain how we're going to really be that. So we're going to, as far as I understood it, we're going to rank it based on their defenses. Yeah. So once we talk about the team, we'll talk about the defense and why we have a rank and then kind of just briefly talk about their special teams. Yeah. So like that special teams will be that same rank that we put the right. Yeah. Yeah. We're not going to go. This team is running here in defense, but here in special teams, that's just, that's going to be hard to follow anyway. We're going to rank it based on the defenses and then also touch on their special teams. We debated doing them or not, but I feel it's big part of the game. Like we got to do it and with the new kickoff rule. We want to. Yeah. He also got a thing too. So like look at Detroit, they might have an okay defense, but they have a really good special team. I mean, the Packers, their biggest downfall of the past couple of years have been their special teams. They've lost, they've lost the playoff game to the 49ers, Aaron Rodgers last MVP year because of special teams. They lost here. And last, well, kind of. Yeah, it was like a special team. Jordan Love threw a dumb pick at the end. Tell them it. We'll get it. We'll get it. And shipped. So. Okay. Peace out.
