As for Ty Montgomery. He (among others) look to be playing scared and uptight. It's as if he's afraid (and several others) to make a mistake.

Of course this has made me wonder why aren't they using their big power RBs? Do they not trust them for some reason (such as they're not ready) or are they saving certain packages.

But I feel a power RB like Rip or Mays could hit and bounce off some of the early tackles better with this current blocking struggling.

I don't get it. We are 1st and 5 and have no confidence to get the first down with 3 runs.

Lacy may of not fit in our scheme but he was our best running back we've had in the past 5 years.

I keep saying & will keep saying it again ... Monty is not a #1 running back ... I would much rather use him as a WR he will be more productive.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

And with four OGs in the game (counting Murphy as an OG), they should be able to do some simply power runs. And ask a big RB to break one tackle and lean forward for the second one. Should be able to get 3 or more yards (when not in short yardage situation).

They tried a lot of those short passes to Monty, but by the time he got the ball, he had no where to go... a big RB can at least nail the first defender there and maybe break the tackle and pick up a few yards.

With our offense and run game I would rather have Monty, or someone else similar than a power back. Someone like Sproles would have been a great match in this offense.

Why are you ticked at Ted Thompson? I don't understand this. Josh Sitton had to be let go and his replacement Lane Taylor has done a damn good job. TJ Lang CHOSE to sign with the Lions and be closer to home. He's from Michigan. How this on Ted Thompson? I don't get this constant barrage of disdain towards Ted Thompson when we seem to always ignore the plethora of factors that go into a player signing here, or elsewhere. It is NEVER just one person at fault. NEVER.

As for Ty Montgomery. He (among others) look to be playing scared and uptight. It's as if he's afraid (and several others) to make a mistake.

When Montgomery gets ~135 yards Thursday, things will be good in the hood.

Wouldn't mind some WCO fundamentals. THREE STEP DROP from under center. GET THE BALL OUT. Screens, traps. Roger Craig type shit for Ty.

Mucky Tundra (3h) : @DMRussini

Mucky Tundra (3h) : The Chicago Bears are very open for business at 9 and telling teams they are ready to move for the right price, per source

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend Penei Soul 4yrs - 112mil

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend St. Brown 4 years 120mil and

Mucky Tundra (24-Apr) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (24-Apr) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (24-Apr) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen

beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC

Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

beast (21-Apr) : Can't tell if this is real or BS, but some rumors about a possible Patriots/Vikings trade for #3 overall

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.
