This popular refrain has been recited by New York Giants continually for several years. It’s perfectly sensible to accuse previous offensive lines of malpractice, and the state of the unit last year actually supports this argument.
Belatedly, general manager Dave Gettleman came to the conclusion that his offensive line quick fix didn’t work last season. Gettleman did not acknowledge this fact verbally, but instead acquiring tackle Mike Remmers and guard Kevin Zeitler spoke volumes.
The general manager never acknowledged that signing guard Patrick Omameh, and shifting Ereck Flowers from left to right tackle were mistakes.
