[QUOTE="erik_m_vos, post: 319513, member: 3032"] I don't understand how people think our Oline is that bad all of the sudden. Our offensive stats have still been very good and we're still in the playoff hunt. Lets look at 2008: 4038 passing yards 1800 rushing yards IN 2009 4400 Passing yards 1800 Rushing yards This season 3200 passing yards 1200 rushing yards Now take the Jets... arguably a very good oline 2800 passing yards 1800 rushing yards (not THAT much different and two GOOD Hb's) How about the Patriots Decent Oline 3300 passing yards 1400 rushing yards Point being, if our Oline was that horrid, we wouldn't be faring that well in offensive yards and scoring and most certainly wouldn't be 8-5 and in the playoff hunt! Green Bay is 14th this year for sacks let up at 29 (remember 2008???) Green Bay is 24th and near the bottom for QB hits at 53 Clifton and Tauscher are both getting old, but we have a replacement for Tauscher in Bulaga who will develop nicely. I think Lang will turn around and be decent. Sitton is a stud.... Wells is ok in my mind, but not BAD. Colledge is sloppy. We could use another OT in the draft to replace Clifton when he goes. Either develop Lang further or draft one. We need a left guard badly. Spitz would be a good idea there, but his recovery from injury isn't there I thought it would be. Our line isn't THAT bad. It's just not what it was with two pro bowl tackles anymore. But give that time, and we'll have that again. They're young, and improving [/QUOTE]
