Eagles Offensive Line impressed the hell out of me against the Giants

[TBro]

Kelce was an animal and regularly had excellent push in the run game including neutralizing Lawrence's
penetration and pass rush. 

He may be the same size as Bradbury, but the two play nothing like each other. His ability to anchor in 
Pass Protection is what Vikings's fans can only dream of. 

Resigning Bradbury would be a huge mistake IMO. 

The rest of their line just works really well together and dominated the Giants D in every phase.

The Eagles are no joke. The two best teams are the Eagles and Niners in the NFC. East Coast vs. West Coast. Would make for a potentially very good NFCC game.

Yup, after watching what a dominate center can do it really make me question paying big money to Bradbury.

Eagles OL has impressed me all year and the year b4 that

I was a Hurts fan when he was with the Tide and wasn't happy when he became an Eagle

That is a very balanced and well coached team

I have very mixed feelings about Bradbury. I think he's average on his best days, but the alternatives on the roster this year were a startling down-grade.

I dont see an alternative? Maybe the league will make a decision for us and someone else will give him a lucrative longer-term deal.

Continuing with GB would be a mistake IMO.  I think we saw better push and anchor out of Reed against the bears than we have seen from GB,  ever.  Now the bears are hardly a bench mark,  especially the final game of the year,    but the point is GB has disappointed his entire time in MN when it comes to actually playing along the line.

We need more beef and nasty to go with our athletic IOL.  Look at what the giants OL ( and most others) did to our DL,  they moved when they needed to move,  and were road graders when they needed to push the pile.

Kirk Lowdermilk, Jeff Christy, Matt Birk.   anchors on outstanding offensive lines.  John Sullivan was an All Pro compared to what the Vikings have been putting on the field the last 5 years

I think the Vikings passed on offensive linemen in the past, the big nasty dominate type, because they didn't feel like they fit into the zone scheme they were running so we ended up with guys like Bradbury.  Guys coming from college are exposed to both an outside zone scheme and power running scheme so passing on a big nasty based on scheme fit is just dumb.

Watching the Eagles toy with the Giants 3 times this year makes me realize how far away we are in all phases of the game.

Not to mention how badly the gurls kicked our ass at home and the niners ( considered by some to be the class of the NFC) are playing with or even bettering them.  

We can't be focusing on the 13 -4 or even the nfc north crown,  we need to be eyes wide open to where this roster really is.

Except they're not the same size. Bradbury is 10-15 lbs heavier than Kelce. Sorta makes ya think that Bradbury's problems might be more technique than size related, huh? Yeah, still a problem, but I've been saying this for four years.
