I don't think anyone in history has ever argued that a LT could by themselves elevate a team to the playoffs. In my opinion a QB without a good LT is like a carpenter without a hammer. His job is much more difficult and the quality will not be great. On the other hand, a good LT is like a hammer without a carpenter.

But that said, even Matt Ryan had a 1st round pick at LT. |

This article is complete BS. The Ravens were having O-line problems. When McKenzie came on board, Oher volunteered to move to right. Oher spent his rookie year at right tackle. The move made Flacco a better QB. In the same division as Von Miller, I'll take the bookend tackles. |

"When coaches talk about position hierarchy, left tackle isn't among the top few anymore," an AFC team exec says. "Now it's QB, pass rusher, cornerback, wide receiver."
the point in this article is that the "trifecta" is void and the LT isn't even part of the equation anymore.

And it's not like there is a singular "system" at this point anyway. Most teams are utilizing variants of numerous systems on both sides of the ball. You'll see cover 2's, 46's, 43's, 34's, etc. out of one team. It's not three yards and a cloud of dust with the best players on the best teams winning. Teams have been forced to employ various sets in order to counter the innovations that we've seen on both sides of the ball in the past decade. |

The article even contradicts itself by saying pass rusher is important, but The LT's importance is diminished. Who do they think has the job of blocking these important pass rushers? |

Spread concepts mean a spread out field, more receivers, faster throws, more space. That's why elite o-line isn't as important as elite pass rush, and coverage guys that neutralize the quick passing game. The league is always changing, many people still see the NFL teams built in the 80's and 90's as how one builds a team today. |
