I hope Thunk's struggles were simply a bad game against a very good defense in a hostile environment, and not indicative of the beginning of the "Rookie Wall."I seem to recall Cannon had a foot injury that cost him a few games, and he was clearly limited when he came back. Both Mason and Andrews have developed from their rookie seasons, and Thuney has done a credible job as a rookie, despite his struggles Sunday. And, of course, Solder.
I will echo the praise for Solder. The silence on him in the game threads and overall discussions of the season are likely as good a compliment as an OLineman might ever want, and Cannon, in comparison to last season's debacle (not just against Denver), has been a revelation, but Solder has held down the blind side quite admirably all season.
