Same can be argued for LIX.
Either way, that argument would hold a bit more weight if everyone on the line didn’t get abused in LIX. Jawaan was getting his shit pushed in, as was Trey. And we all know Caliendo and Thuney were even worse than those guys.
Too much money tied up in the OL to turn in that sort of performance on that big of a stage against that caliber of opposition. Seriously, Carter is elite but guys were getting ravaged by Jalyx Hunt and Bryce Huff. Those guys are basically replacement level players. Josh Sweat is like an 8-sack-per-year kind of guy and we made him look like Reggie White.

Let's just cut all the veterans on the OL.
Who cares about the dead cap hit. We will just use players on rookie contracts and whoever we draft.
That way we won't have to worry about any embarrassing performances by overpaid guys.
Won't have to worry about being embarrassed on the big stage either.
