Dude… McGlinchy
Any questions about McGlinchey center on his ability in pass protection. In his five NFL campaigns, McGlinchey has never managed to exceed a season-long 70.0 PFF pass-blocking grade. According to PFF’s stable pass metrics, McGlinchey ranks in the 26th percentile in grading on true pass sets — an alarmingly low number for a full-time starting tackle. This past season, he earned a 65.4 PFF pass-block grade, which ranks 56th among offensive tackles and 22nd among right tackles.
This incapability in pass protection was on full display during the Niners' recent playoff run, during which McGlinchey gave up 10 of his 40 pressures in just the divisional and conference championship games. Most will remember Micah Parsons’ performance in the divisional round, in which he finished with five pressures against McGlinchey, including one that sent him to the turf.
And Bolles
23. GARETT BOLLES, DENVER BRONCOS
Bolles’ 90.6 PFF grade in 2020 seems like an outlier at this point. But if he is healthy for the 2023 season, then he’s still a top-25 tackle in the NFL. He has produced a PFF grade of 72.0 or better in all six of his seasons and was able to get his penalty count more under control in 2020 and 2021 after a difficult first three seasons in the NFL in that regard.
The stakes really couldn't be much higher for the Broncos' strategy at the tackle positions. Should this duo fail to hold up in pass pro, the Russell Wilson reclamation project will be fated to fail.
Just because YOU say something doesn’t make it correct, and matter of fact it usually means the exact opposite.
Powers has looked like ass this preseason, both your tackles suck and are bottom 1/3 of the league, your Center is questionable at best.
I mean, you keep spewing this bullshit, but refuse to take any sort of bet. Which tells me all I need to know about what you REALLY think about your team!
MAKE THE BET!!
