My Take

Offensive linemen rarely get headlines, which is exactly why I find Wirfs so compelling. He came out of tiny Mount Vernon, Iowa, a 196 cm wall of a man, and turned protecting the quarterback into an art form. Five straight Pro Bowls before he is even thirty tells you everything about how reliably he wins his battles, snap after anonymous snap. I respect players whose excellence shows up in the absence of disaster rather than on the highlight reel. There is something deeply Iowan about that workmanlike grind, and I suspect his best seasons are still ahead of him.
