[QUOTE="BrokenArrow, post: 757920, member: 12225"] It doesn't matter. Opinions of those who do not remember are irrelevant. Facts are facts and the fact is that the Packers thrived on Lombardi's power sweep which fueled them to many championships. And who do you think made that power sweep click more than anyone else? Kramer took the guard position and changed it from a position where you just stuck a big lumbering brawler and turned it into an athletic position that combined size, speed and strength in a way that had never been seen before. He very rarely gave up any kind of QB pressure. He was an excellent traditional run blocker and he could lead block and run like a FB. Even today it's rare to see a pulling guard still blocking 40 yards downfield on a sweep. JK did it frequently. [/QUOTE]
