The offensive linemen must be effective in making the backside cut-blocks so that the RB can make one cut through the seams that are then created. In fact, one of it's biggest benefits of the scheme is supposed to be that you don't need a high-priced star running back to make it work. As with every other team, the success of the Packers offense this year will depend on the play of their offensive line. If they don't improve as expected, the offensive production will be similar to last year's. And something else that everyone seems to be overlooking in the loss of Henderson and Green is their blitz pickup and pass-blocking abilities. If Miree and our RB-by-committee don't do a good job in that area, it's going to be a very,very long year for whoever is playing QB.</blockquote>
