True. Kirby looks to be working hard to close the talent gap though to be sure. We appreciate the efforts of those that came before us to usher in the great era of change.

In all seriousness though, another major problem with the theory is that OL rotation just doesn't quite work that way. You'd have to legitimately have a second string OL that you felt good enough about to risk your quarterback and running backs behind. We're going to be deep at OL, but I don't know that anyone is that deep, nor would it look good if anything goes wrong when you had your subs in on the OL. Will be interesting to see what we're able to do on that front, but OL success is traditionally dependent on a rhythm and borderline sixth sense on what the other guys on the line will do and how they will react. There's a reason why you don't see a lot of OL rotation.
