Offensive Linemen to look for Saturday?

A.J., Scott, Brandon, or Dale, CMC, and CAM, have been hinting that several of the younger offensive linemen are nearing
or on the cusp of earning playing time? Should we be looking Saturday for J. Denis, Big Jax, Logan Saspolu. Marcus Harper ,
Kingsley S, or others. Perhaps some are still a wee bit dinged up? Any insight would be important. Go Ducks, PMM

Why is AB THE best QB on the team?

Just read an article on Duck Territory, which was the second on the point how AB was good in some games and bad in others. When Moorhead calls a single read play AB is good to excellent, when it is a RPO AB is poor to bad. The UCLA game is an example, around 80% of the offensive play calls were single read calls. In other words AB is bad at making the correct call in the RPO game.
