    Or maybe it's because of what they are being asked to do

    Lol. That's exactly what I was gonna type.
    If they're being asked to do too much, then how about start with just blocking the guy that's in front of you.

    Even so, blocking head up can't be that complicated.

    Yep. The line used to could keep the D-Line off balance a bit by running. Now they are asked to play defense the entire game and the D-Line gets to pin their ears back and get after it every play. I could see that being frustrating from the O-Line standpoint.

    Pass block? A basic skill that every OL should have picked up in pee wee league.

    you think it's easy ? ... Run blocking is way easier than pass blocking ... that's coming from a left tackle
    OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
    The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

    Yet we get no push an often let DL or LBs that should be picked up slip through. Vs 3 DL and a 5 man box, we run for 2 yards. So even if you say pass blocking is complicated that's not really enough to excuse the OL
