IMO , it's not that Montgomery is playing RB , but more a question of how he is utilized . He is at his best on screen passes . Other RB's like Jamaal Williams need to see more field time with more rotation of personal . Ripkowski should also be played more often , but not just as a flag the says GB is going to pass on this play or that . He can be utilized as a power runner behind the O-Line on short yardage plays .

By now GB knows what their Runners can do, it's the injured O-Line that is holding then back. That too will change , but not just this week . [cool]

They need to see what they've got with these younger guys. It's not like Ty is lighting it up with his pass protection.

I mean i get it, having Ty in there can confuse the defense. But he's being overused.

When the 1st 5 Tackles are out, not sure any RB is going to have a lot of success.

The Packers haven't had much of a chance to work in the young guys a whole lot.

Hopefully they get through tonight without any more injuries and a win, although given the current circumstances, I will be surprised they do.
10 days rest and rehab, that will give them a chance to work in the young guys at rb .

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
