Yesterday might have been just what they needed in order to separate the starters from the backups, and begin to develop that cohesion that so many of us speak of.
A wake up call is always good.
Though I don't think there has been much doubt about the the OL starters. OBJ, Mims & Karras were locks. Fairchild was gonna have to struggle mightily to not start at LG. Thankfully, he has done well so far. And Patrick is a clear upgrade to Ford, who is better at OT and our only proven OT reserve at any spot. Volson has proven something, but not sure it is a good thing, but at least he has some experience. Lee, Rivers, Cochran, McLaughlin, Kirkland & the rest have little to no NFL experience.
