Offensive Line

Yeah Yeah...I know....injuries...draft....disappointments......

Just a question though........does anyone think that some of our problems can be attributed to the coaching staff?.....Just asking....

Hard to say. Bulaga seemed to be a very good OT but injuries have hurt him. Sherrod was showing signs but hasn't been back since the broken leg.

Newhouse was never supposed to be a starting left tackle. Many saw him as a very good backup who could fill in on eithe side. Barclay is an UDFA who has turned into a maybe-decent right tackle. Sitton is a Pro Bowler. EDS is still a question, this will be his first full shot. I just don't think we have had a lot of luck with the OL thanks to injuries and focusing on other positions. Couldn't say how much of it was coaching

Our Oline sucks the high hard one all around. They got manhandled tonight. I have concerns.

I'm very concerned as well, which I stated in my post in the other thread. When I saw our O-line in the second half just STRUGGLE, I couldn't help but think it was a coaching thing, however, I tried to focus on the O-line on the replays and I have to question whether it was a coaching issue, a scheme issue, an experience issue(given that most of these guys are rookies), or a talent issue. I can't help but think that our guys just had a bad night, no place to put blame; they just laid a biscuit.

In all fairness you guys have not had top draft picks in a longtime. Parity is set up to do just that. But I do agree you should be concerned and not because I'm a rival but because there is legitimate reason to be.

Put the blame where it goes, on the crappy QB play. That made the line look worse then it was IMO.

^ Harrell makes everyone else look bad

I blame coaching, they seem to draft the same type of lineman. With Harrell in the game teams can really keep 8-9 in the box so they look even worst.

Well, we don't really have to worry about that anymore, and welcome. I remember you from ESPN.

Yeah I'm from ESPN. Lacy is very productive behind the front line when Rodgers is in the game. The moment Harrell entered the game Lacy YPC went in the negatives.
