I try really hard not to jump the gun and go batshit crazy after a loss, but my impressions of Tausch and Clifton so far this year have really got me thinking it's time to get Lang and Bulaga in there.

It's an outdoor stadium. Crowd noise shouldn't be that big a factor. Besides, these guys have played over a decade in the league. They should know the snap counts sufficiently by now not to be making stupid false starts in crucial situations. Like on the goal line.

I thought hell was freezing over because cliffy went 2 games w/o a FS...but hell apparently returned to normal last night - was it 2 on him? Then another 2 or so on Taush. Learn to count up to 5 you f'n idiots!

It's a plus any time a reserve beats out a starter because it means there's an upgrade. If Bulaga and Lang can legitemitly beat out or even play as well, with upside, as Clffy and Tausch, great. It would also be nice to have two veterans as backups. But just to replace them for no good reason or out of emotion makes no sense.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

It's not without reason, in my opinion. So far this year, Bulaga has looked better than Clifton. With Lang it's not as clear. He's still hurt as far as I know. But I think his performance from last season looks better than what Tausch has shown us this season.

Clearly there was a reason the Pack didn't resign Tauscher right away last year maybe this is it. As for Cliffy he is just past the age of no return.

This.

And if I'm not mistaken, bulaga looked like a drunken idiot who got dominated by peppers on the blocked fg.

Cliffy and Taush have looked like dog shit, but I still have faith that AT WORST they can serve as capable back ups. It's ugly now, but I'm confident the oline can turn around like they did after tampa.

Its pretty damn simple. Clifton needs to be taken out and replaced by Bulaga. I am curious if anyone watched this guys run blocking yesterday? It is terrible, absolutely terrible.

The pentalties are unacceptable.

Who was the holding call on when the touchdown was called back? I think that was Sitton.

False starts, 4 combined between Clifton and Tauscher? Regardless of the stadium noise, they are veterans and I am pretty sure they have played in louder games than last night. These guys don't deserve excuses.

Put our 1st round draft pick in the game. Anyone know the status on Lang?

THAT is what I said. (Vindication/offseason/o-line discussion-wise)

We were at least one year late in addressing the o-line, and we are PAYING for it NOW.

I disagree with you about re-signing Cliffy--- My difference was and is subtle...

WE HAD TO SIGN HIM !

We had no other option---
I want ALL 3 of the motherfuckers OUT. I'll take my chances...

The 3rd would be Colledge, but I'm sure you already knew that, lol
