    transcript from: https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2020/01/23/nfl-rams-andrew-whitworth-saffold-sullivan-offensive-line/

    “I think it really is, because there’s also the expectation that a young player – yeah, they can come in and try to be effective in the game, but they’re never going to be as effective as somebody like a Rodger Saffold, who’s an elite interior player in the league.” Whitworth told Colin Cowherd when asked if the team’s struggles came down to Saffold and Sullivan being gone. “There’s still a massive difference in that. And a John Sullivan, who played center in this league for a long time, been a part of the Minnesota Vikings when Adrian Peterson and those guys were leading the league in rushing. He’s been a part of great rushing football teams and he comes and Rodger comes and we’re all together.

    “Those were really good football players and it’s not fair for these young guys to even have the expectation that they’re going to play like that – yet. In their career, sure. But those guys were as good as they get inside. And so you watch what Rodger’s done in the playoffs. I routinely text Taylor Lewan and tell him how mad I am at him. But it’s great, I’m happy for him and he’s shown what a great football player he is.”
