Webb, Williams expected to start on O-line - Chicago Breaking Sports
Thoughts? It doesn't hurt to try.

Has Lance Louis given up alot of sacks? Is that why they benched him. Hopes its not based off last game as he was injured, and I mean you cant really go off last game..every offensive lineman sucked last game. And wasnt Erwin Williams a TACKLE before? I can see that going as well as the Omiyale move to right guard last year...

These offensive linemen should have been shook as babies.

At least E Williams and J Webb played pretty good and should be in same role next week. They did have some mistakes but that will come from young players. I know Collins-Hanie (Barely) threw little but they had more time than last week. But, again it was against a piss DL like in Carolina.

Oh, I get it! Because it's the OL shakeup thread, right? That's funny and clever!
Funny stuff.

IDK, Wasn't Williams the weakest link in our overall weak chain link (off)fence? I'm not sure if having him back would be much of an improvement.

He struggled in the Detroit game...he was lost too early in the Dallas game to really tell his effectiveness. I mean Dallas was all out blitzing in the first quarter, so to me hard to gauge effectiveness there.

He also looked really bad in preseason. Martz says that was because the offense wasn't game-planning and were leaving the o-line to block one on one. I'm not sure I buy that entirely.
Also, the o-line looked a lot better after Williams went out and Omiyale was moved to the other side at Dallas. That, too, could be because the Bears changed their offensive scheme and made adjustments.
I'm just not sure I'm in a big hurry to get Williams back in there. I think they should give the new guys (Webb and Edwin Williams) time to see what they can do against better defenses than Carolina's. If they continue to struggle, use Williams as a back up and go ahead and throw him in there, I guess

I'm sorry. I know you were just kidding, and it was a play on words. I just don't find child abuse that funny.
Imagine someone reading that post who just lost her child because her babysitter or boyfriend shook it to death! How do you think your post would make her feel?
I know this is the internet where you can hide behind the anonymity of your pseudonym and type any hurtful or hateful thing you want.
I have as much of a sense of humor as anyone. I just think people should think about how their words could hurt people before hitting "submit reply."
It's no big deal, and maybe I overreacted. I just thought your comment was in bad taste.

Chris Williams played 3 snaps in the game, people keep saying how awful he looked and It looked so much better when Omiyale, but that's a VERY little base to go off. In fact Omiyale gave up the 1 sack on that first series actually. Williams was in the first series and he was out, which means at the most he got hurt on that 3rd play if not the first or second so he had 2 healthy full start to finish snaps. Not one game so far has the line looked like they could pass protect on the first series.
He didn't give a lot of push but he wasn't awful against Detroit it wasn't like stated. There was a lot of interior pressure and Garza has been hurt and awful, so now maybe Williams can play well at LG where he should of been probably to start with last year instead of RT where Omiyale should of played. He might not even start yet but may just backup or what they should do is what they've done with Webb and move him in a series or too.
They are moving Williams to LG like many fans I heard call for last year, I wasn't one of them to say though. Many knew he is a left side oriented player which is why he kinda sucked bad a lot at LT and he had played guard before unlike Omiyale and Omiyale also is a more true LT with his arms to reach but he is rather slow footed making him constantly pushing guys as he is falling on his ass out there... If Williams can be a solid and grow to a strong LG the teams success can go a long way now and down the line.
Coming out scouts said he would likely be a better LG to start his career because of his lack of arm length and burst to handle speed rush at all times and the year he was starting with Cutler in Vandy it was where he played.

If Chris can stay healthy I think it will work just fine.
