Where do you guys see this guy playing after Clifton retires? I really don't mind him right where he is. He did a pretty good job on Tuck today. Tuck got a few pressures, but for the most part was stalemated. It probably helps playing next to Sitton, who quite frankly is a beast. And nice job Josh having Driver's back today.

I'd love to see the Packers land Carimi in the draft, but I don't think they will be in the position to nab him, without trading up.

He's the best LT after Clifton unless we pick up someone else. He has had his struggles this season but he has had some tough match ups. Playing a position he never has before as a rookie without practicing it before being thrown in there. He has also had to face Orakpo, Wake, Ware, Tuck, Peppers, and Ray Edwards among others.

I think we will find that out in the draft. But I'd prefer him on the left side. It just seemed like it came natural to him from what little amount I saw. I really don't want Lang to be our future LT.

I bet Newhouse lands at LT. He can't play inside. Bulaga ends up at RT or LG, and Lang fills the other spot. McDonald becomes a man in the offseason and starts at C next year. I bet they replace Colledge in the draft.

Newhouse at LT is hard to believe. The LT is your most important lineman. It's not likely that a guy who is about your #8 lineman one year is going to start at LT the following year.

Maybe Bulaga is the LT, but is Newhouse a possibility at RT. I would be surprised to see Colledge back next year, but we may squeak out one more year of Clifton. If we have to go with what is in house, would it look like this:

Bulaga - LT
Lang - LG
Wells - C
Sitton - RG
Newhouse - RT

How will the line shake out after Cliffy retires.. I am not sure, guess would be Bulaga would slide over there.

But what I love the best.. is that we have a couple of legitimate options on the roster already. No locks but some solid competition.

The better part, with the depth at other areas of the team, (see our performances with the injuries this season), Ted will have the luxury of potentially adding more OL talent come this April.

Bulaga played a solid game yesterday against a very talented player in Tuck.. not perfect but solid.

He'll go to the left side, regardless.

We don't have anyone on the roster who's a better option. It might become pretty ugly, but we really don't have a choice.

I think we'll pick up another O-lineman somewhere early in the draft. Maybe someone who could step in at RT right away. You can usually find quality, 1st day starters like that in the 2nd round.

I'm afraid that we'll go to the same crap next year. inexperienced play from the RT position. A lot of pressure on mental mistakes. Bulaga will hopefully step it up on the left side in the running game department, but I doubt he'll be better than Clifton this year against the pass.

He is headed for the left side.

I think Bulaga is moving left, but I do hope we invest in the O-line in the first round of the draft if we don't sign a legit starter in FA. 2 concussions in one season for A-Rod has me pretty scared as a Packer fan.
Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (5h) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.
packerfanoutwest (5h) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it
beast (6h) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done
Zero2Cool (13h) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.
Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore
packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!
Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!
beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
