Nothing wrong with Rouse. There is a reason he is backing up both FS and SS. He is better than the others.

Ya, let's do that. Let's take away some of the very things that can make this an extremely difficult team to defend against and nullify that advantage in order to nuture a RT that is not ready for prime-time to an obvious degree. He was owned. He was owned badly by someone that has no business owning a RT at his age and condition...He got a season's worth of abuse in one friggin' game.

This poster doesn't want to hear a word about Aaron Rodgers, our running backs, our mis-communication/lack of chemistry/timing, whatever with wide receivers, etc. until the absolute keystone of any offense is addressed in a most serious manner...this game is won and lost on the lines. Maybe everyone else doesn't see it, or maybe they don't care because it don't mean shit in Madden or something, but I will rail away until something proves me wrong.

Edit-- I get pissed and stay pissed for awhile when these things pop up. Take my commentary with a grain of salt. I mean no personal animus.

I do give kudos to MM for not being affraid to throw the ball down field but some times I think hes a bit slow to fix that when its not working. It takes a lot of time for that play to develop and I think that could have at least part of it to do with Barbre's play. ie lots of deep throws down field. I did not see a slant completed all night. That used to be bread and butter.

I think the argument here is how to fix the problem, not that there isn't a problem.

I think most everyone agrees there was a problem with the o-line.

This is what coaches are paid for. Let's see how they handle it.

Breath in, Breath out, The Packers are 1-0, Try to enjoy it, look foward to The Bungals coming to town. :icon_smile: :icon_smile:

Good post. Will take under serious advisement. It is the best I can do at the moment. :thumbleft:

I agree obviously with everyone that the offensive line needs significant fixing. dfosterf, It would terrific if the packers got Runyan. I don't know how likely it is as he'll probably go to Philly if they want to resign him again. The rest of my family are Eagles fans(I'm originally from PA), and I've watched Runyan play for a long time. He gives everything he has out on the football field.

Need to have a solid plan B in place when the Right Tackle is disguised as a turnstile.

Mark, keep your Cell Phone on today.

Don't you just for now chip and release with a tight end on that side to give Babre a hand. I know four and five wides are popular, but not at the expense or your quarterback. Barbre is pretty good mauler in the run game. Let's support the kid and give him a little help to get through.

Also, maybe Clifton should be offered a two year contract extension. He has gas in the tank yet and the big hillbillie should end his career with us.

Uncle Ted has a lot of work to do before the end of the year. Anyone know the amount of cap we have to use since we don't waste it on overated free agents?

The play of Barbre last night was a major worry. I would be frantically exploring the free agent market - Tauscher/Runyan. The performance from Barbre was atrocious, he only improved in the second half because the Packers gave him help on every single play.
