What do I expect?

I expect Ted and company to be searching the employment line looking for players that can play superiorly to the ones lined up at depth on the offensive line, most notably at tackle.

Not replacing off the roster, a guy like Lang will develop into a solid player in this league, but someone unlike Breno that can be counted on to be active on Sundays and help this team.

Not rocket science with the cap room we have.. shore up the problem areas on this club and move forward giving this club some stability at the tackle position verses the patchwork front we have thrown out there today. Period.

It's been four games guys. Four. Look at the statistics, we are basically the same offensively as we were in the first four games last year and we haven't even started performing well yet. The team will show it's true colors as we near the midpoint of the season.

So what you are saying is that the Packers are right on schedule to be 6-10 again? That's not very encouraging.

I don't want any part of the statistics to be comparable to last season. I know that Rodgers had a good year last year (stats wise) but I want him and the whole team to have shown improvement.

It is interesting that GB brought in other tackles to take a look at and by not signing them they are saying that the players they have are better than the available FAs. What's with that? :scratch: Too much :smoker: in the front offices?

Why is everyone saying its just the o-line when we have big holes on defense also.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

I don't believe that statement about everyone is accurate, at all.

The biggest glaring issue we have on our team is the OL. You fix the OL, we have a better running game, better protection which is longer drives which means the defense has a better shot at being fresh down the stretch.

We do have some issues on defense for sure. Namely, the safety position. I read somewhere that we're losing our aggressive attack because we don't have a trusting safety next to Collins. Maybe once Bigby is back, we'll have some more gooder defense. 🙂

5 years should be enough time to tear apart an o-line and rebuild it into a somewhat workable unit.

I'm hoping I see the Tauscher signing by Monday. That will help, but if anyone else goes down with injury, Packers are very thin on o-line.

The Oline isnt as bad as advertised.. People are like "A-rod has been sacked 20 times like ohh my gawd!!" but Rodgers is a huge part of this sack problem. I can't remember the last time I saw Rodgers throw the ball away instead of taking a sack. There were times during the MN game where he would have pretty good protection and he wouldnt find anyone open.. ya ok Im fine with that.. good job not forcing anything.. but just chuck the ball out of bounds instead of taking sacks for the love of god!!!

I 100%. Honestly, if I was Ted I'd be freaking embarrassed as shit that after that many years he still has not established a effective OL.

I wonder if the problem is finding OL for the ZBS? I think we've gone a bit away from it, but we're no where near a full blown power OL team that I'd like us to be.

Our OL wasn't this bad in '05 when we were more of a power OL.

I think everyone seems to forget that just because we don't see anything, that that means nothing is going on behind the scenes that we don't get to see.
Just because we don't SEE Ted Thompson checking out trying to get more o-line men in to check out doesn't mean he's not doing it.

Plus, as was already said, he's NOT going to say PUBLICLY how he really feels. Behind closed doors i bet he;s chewing some guys out BIG.
Just the fact that he said he's dissapointed on the season so far shows he's not hunky dorry with how things are going.
He can't afford to get emotional, and make decisions based on emotion. That won't make things better.

Still, Thompson refused to pin the offensive problems solely on the line.

The whole protection issue is a combination of things, Thompson said. Its the blocking, its the reads (by Rodgers), its the route running, its the running game, its the whole thing. All those things have to come together. I think we have a very potent offensive, but obviously weve stubbed our toe a little bit in terms of getting off to a good start.

Keep sticking your head in the sand, plugging your ears, shutting your eyes and sing lalalalalalala all freaking bye week.. that will sure the hell fix things.

To say that I am disappoint in the lack of urgency of this staff is a f%#$ing understatement, they didn't even bother to bring in more lineman to gather options.. nothing.. I getting close to closing my openness to this regime.. you are getting your asses handed to you at the line of scrimmage on offense.. yet you sit on your hands.. damn it all.

I am tried on this caca.. sick and f%#$ing tired of hearing we have some things to fix. I tired of the "I think" statements.. I'm tired of this roller coaster of performance from this offensive line and the stubbornness not to make changes.. four years of it has worn me out.

Fix the issues or get the hell out.
