[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 153774, member: 431"] I think it has been the best thing for the Packers that Brett has stayed on. Having made the switch to MM after '05 it would not have been good to put Rodgers in there with a new offensive line. That would have been a recipe for disaster and could have hurt Rodgers to a point we never know if he could really play or not. Was it Carr's fault he has not produced or Houston's fault for never putting an "0" line in front of the guy? He only got sacked like 50 times a year. I though Favre handled the change in philosophy and personnel like the pro he is and better than most QB's young or old. Especially when you consider MM went AWAY from what Brett likes to do and made him tone it down. Many games last year the opposing team was successful in shutting down the run and that left Brett throwing it to DD with Jennings hurt and the TE's dropping everything thrown their way. No wonder the red zone offense stunk. Did you not see how well the passing game went when we were able to run it a little? I think we will be able to run the ball better this year with all the "0" line back and some game time under their belts. Brett's already talking about them. Brett is also one of the best ever at avoiding pressure which I believe was the best thing that could happen for that young "0" line's confidence. Brett's always been the MAN in Green Bay but how our defense plays and how well we run the ball this year will determine how far we go. Once all of this is in place there will be a time for Mr. Rodgers to step in and see what he can do but for now Brett took a lot off his back not having to come in there back in '05 or '06. I don't think he was ready and am pretty sure it would have been real ugly. Watch Oakland. They will start to lose and the pressure will mount to put Russell in there and with that lousy "0" line it could be the worst thing that could happen. He might be able to throw it fifty yards off his knees but not off his back. [/QUOTE]
