    He's still rusty. There certainly haven't been big holes to run through up the middle. I won't rush to judgement quite yet either way.

    He's a top 3 center in the league; he should be back there.

    top 3 center on the worst line in franchise history, damming with faint praise indeed

    I'm ok w/ the best 5 idea and if that means guard for Pouncey I'm fine w/ it. I believe he will only get better w/ reps.

    In no way was he a top 3 center last year, IMHO.

    That is highly debatable. Top 8-10 maybe, but top 3 is a stretch IMO.

    The thing is though, is Satele better at C than anyone else we have at G? Would it suprise anyone to see Pouncey move to LG and see Smith back in at RG next week?

    He's certainly not a top 8-10 guard, that much is for sure.

    I don't think so. I'd give Billy Turner, Dallas Thomas or Sam Brenner a shot at LG while moving Pouncey back to C and Smith to RG.

    I'd like to see more than 3 games at guard before deciding how highly he'd rank at that spot.

    Three more games with an interior OL of Colledge-Satele-Pouncey may cost this team dearly.

    I'm pretty confident he's MUCH better at C than he is at G.

    Pouncey IMO is a top 5 center in the NFL.

    Wow I admire his toughness but he should have told them during warmups or whatever that he couldn't play.

    We can't afford another game of Colledge - Satele - Pouncey in the interior. We are throwing away our season doing that.

    If that's true, then they kept him in 1 drive too many. After the 1st sack he should've been pulled.

    It was so clear how bad he was from the 2nd drive, I actually thought he was throwing the game. As in I thought he bet the Jags.

    Nate Garner seemed to stabilize the O-Line. Can Satele play guard competently?

    He's going to get better. LG is the spot that needs tinkering.

    He may have been a top 5 C last year, but all the individual accolades (for an offensive lineman) resulted in 58 sacks. Again, not blaming Pouncey for that, I'm just saying, let's put the performance of the entire offensive line corps before individual acclaim; this is much less likely to result in a dead QB.
