It was the most pitiful offensive line in professional football history.

As far as a unit...they had excellent wide recievers (one was the subject of double coverage on every passing down...and was playing with injuries) the other rode the bench the entire season for reasons related to insubordination.

Their running backs are adequate, their quarterback play was only so far below average because of the fact the offensive life couldn't block anyone.

The 2006 Raiders offense is the ultimate example of how bad a unit with talent at the skill positions can look when no one up front can block.
