After a rocky last season (I think partly due to being moved back and forth from RG to RT) Onwenu is finally getting back into his groove of being an elite RG and living up to his contract. Happy to see.

He’s one of the highest paid guards in the league…I’m not trying to be a hater but truthfully for where’s he’s paid he should be a legitimate difference maker and on both Mondre fumbles it was his guys in to jar the ball free…. He’s been solid but we pay him to be one of the best.
He also had a hilarious blocking downfield penalty / walk back, so he’s providing entertainment too.

Dude looked 3/4 of the way to retirement last year.
Considering we’ve given up the most sacks, I think, at 12, we must be god awful elsewhere
Underrated is an odd choice of words 3 games in.
They stopped dinking around with him. No question at all where he’d play this season and had a preseason to do it. Not to mention a preseason of knowing who he would play next to. Him and Moses didn’t get a ton of game reps together but I think it’s been incredibly understated how important it is that they have 5 guys finally playing together consistently
Now let’s discuss run blocking…
The offense has signs of life this year. They just aren’t nearly as polished as they need to be yet and the level of talent on the roster is still below average.
They’re still a bad team, but they’re a better team than last season and that’s progress. First time since drafting Mac Jones that that the team looked better in a subsequent season. I don’t care yet about whether it says W or L on the game logs. I’m just glad to see the offense not 3-and-out’ing constantly and the defensive doing reasonably well despite not having their defensive coordinator.
Don’t fire the coaches after this season ends. Have another decent offseason. Keep building.
Regardless of the PFF grades; Onwenu, Campebll and Bradbury have all been solid this year. Wilson and Moses are both struggling.
Not sure how PFF is grading. The right side of the OL had some obvious problems early with working in sync to pick up stunts.
A good guard is a guard you never talk about. So yeah underrated goes with the job
Damn I must not know ball based off these comments bc I love Onwenu
Shocking that when he is playing in his natural position he is better
They finally stopped jerking him around and let him play the position he is good at
He’s playing his proper position.
Stats aside, he did miss assignments on both Mondre fumbles so there’s that.
And most importantly: ZERO fumbles
i hate when they say so and so has been underrated — by who motherfucker.
i mean basically everyone who plays in the NFL is constantly and simultaneously being:
1. underrated
2. overrated
3. not rated at all / ignored
— at all times. during, after, and in between every single game, and at every point in the offseason.
So how about you just tell us where you stand are instead of referencing one of the three positions that are always simultaneously going on at every given moment.
