The O –Line must despise this comment / tag.

Can you imagine the feeling that must secretly be hidden below the bulging belly of any good line man?

Is this not demeaning to the offensive line? They need to know all of the plays the so called skilled players do. They are the life and blood of every team. It all happens in the trenches right?

Where is the love for the OLINE?

The correct term for "skill players" should be "finesse players", but since most people are stupid and uneducated, and thus don't know what "finesse" means, they had to compromise with "skill".
