Raiders, 49ers' upgrades don't include offensive line - Inside Bay Area

Good read, though I think this guy doesn't know that Cable can turn Harris into something servicable. Coaching is the key when it comes to the Raiders. Martz in San Francisco is good but he is right on the money as far as the O_Line in san Fran. Martz has only been succesful when he has had a line. St Louis had a very good line with Pace and some other guys, but when he went to Detroit the line was a joke, but the passing game was ok. Smith is going to have to start due to his great mobility. Bottom line as far as i am concerned oakland is a .500 team but Frisco is going to have more problems this year then last year. GO RAIDERS!!!

we added Harris and Wade to the O line and Cable thinks he can mold them into serviceable ZBS linemen. In Cable I still trust. He created magic out of a heap of trash in only one season. Let's see what happens now with two seasons under the belt.

Besides, we're clearly going to be a run first offense and when we do pass there's going to be a lot of underneath stuff to backs and tight ends. The type of pass blocking required for long passes will not be required all that often and if timed properly by the offensive playcaller and supported with chip blocks by backs and TEs, we should be OK here as well.

Awesome quote, and I couldn't agree more.

In Cable we trust.
