It was the fact that with Flanny and Bubba hurt, a 6th round rookie guard, and, another marginal guard filling in for the loss of Rivera and Wahle there wasn't much ANY RB could have done. Secondly, with this new zone blocking, AG is the type of RB that can really make it work. Remember in prior years when the Pack ran that toss left. AG would get the ball and not go full speed until he saw the seem? Then he would put it in another gear and before you knew it he was way upfield. That patience, and ability to find the seem is exactly what they need in a RB for this blocking scheme. The hole may open up inside the tackle or require a cut back (which AG can do) or, he may have to trail along and wait for it to open up and then let it fly.I see Green as a perfect fit for this type of running game and can't wait to see him get the ball and look along the line for that opening and then hit that next gear.</blockquote>
