But I was expressing some amusement to your post, since you were saying all offseason that Stepehenson was going to be the man when I expressed concerns.
Most of my heated exchanges were with SNR, but you chimed in.
And I will say this again.
SNR is a ****ing moron.

I was hoping that Stephenson was going to have it together for this season. He's got every physical tool you could possibly want from an offensive lineman, except the functional strength, which he obviously (now) bolstered in 2013 with PED's as he looked like a legit NFL OT, but then got the hammer applied after a failed drug test.
It's a fine line that separates college guys and NFL guys, even great college guys. It's not necessarily a (physical) numbers game either. Drive, ferocity at the snap/whistle, etc.
Like I said, I hoped that the freakish athletic ability possessed by Don would have helped him build that functional strength needed to play in the trenches at this level.
Perhaps, as another said, this is meant to light a fire under Kush and Stephenson, but I sincerely doubt it at this point. They need these guys to gel quickly and the only way that's happening is getting them reps. Four straight days of practice and now the PSG lineup...unless Stephenson or Kush has an epiphany, it appears that this is how we'll head into the 2015 season.
