Ted Thompson stayed the course... and handed the starting job to... rookie David Bakhtiari. So far the decision hasn’t paid off

Ummm really?... I thought he's been doing pretty well overall.
Bakhtiari is playing in front of Newhouse who has been the starting LT the last couple of years, which means somebody in charge think he's an upgrade (or that Newhouse got a lot worse).
Also I've heard the Packers have been running more to the left side then the right side, though I don't have numbers to comfirm or defirm that.
I'm sure Allen will get a couple of chances, but then again doesn't he always? Unless he's going against a great OT or there is a good game plan to stop him.
Though since the Vikings have let Ray Edward go (which was probably smart, because I think he got big contract else where), the Vikings DEs have been pass rush guys, which I've thought the Packers should be able to run on.
But they haven't been able to it seems... well with the Packers strong running game this year, maybe this year will be different.
