Comment on TBS To Air Reality Show About Packer Fans by Caleb

Heres the thing, people from WI do tend to act like retards.

Wisconsin is an ignorant, racist, un diverse area full of judgmental people whom most of have not even lived anywhere else, I hope this show doesnt embarrass my fellow Packer fans, but people, get real, there is a reason people outside of WI think if WI as an uneducated, ignorant frozen hole.

The Packers are the lone bright spot in all in all, a terrible state, id eat shit and die before Id raise one of my kids there, and thats coming from someone who grew up in Wisconsin.

Comment on Packers Right Tackle: May the Best Man Win by Stroh

Clearly Newhouse isn’t the best OL of the starters. Otherwise he wouldn’t be in competition for a starting job. However, to say he is absolutely horrible is far from true! Last year he gave up same sacks in about 1/3 more snaps. That’s serious improvement. What he needs to do is do that or something close this season. The snaps won’t go up but his bad plays have to go down. Newhouse is by far the best athlete among the OL. He has better feet than even Sherrod or Bulaga and it isn’t close. He actually pass blocks pretty well and came out w/ a strong postitive grade in pass blocking! His issue is much more his run blocking. Showing that most fans are clearly over-reacting to him. He needs to continue to get better and if shows anything like the improvement he had last year he will be a starter.

Maybe sometime during the season I’ll try to get Brett Goode back on the show. But if you go back through some of the old podcasts, we talked about the art of long snapping quite a bit. Very interesting stuff to hear.

Brian,

Since you have a connection with B. Goode, I’d love to hear his opinion on this. Would it be possible to get his opinion on your podcast sometime?

Or is it maybe a bit of an awkward conversation starter? – “Say, defend your career to people who only watch and have never played your position.”

Enough with the “Any O-lineman can be a longsnapper” crap.

Here are just a few reasons why most-to-all of the o-linemen out there can’t be a permanent long-snapper (some are back-up long snappers in case of injury).

1) Logistics. In many cases, the kickers are practicing their craft at the same time that the offense is practicing thiers. The o-lineman can’t be in 2 places at the same time, therefore they can’t be a starter on both offense and ST.

2) Practice. Like most things in this world, in order to do something well (which we can all agree a pro-athlete is expected to do) you must practice … a lot. The snap must become muscle memory. It has to be the same, every time, if the process of the snap-hold-kick is going to happen smoothly and fast enough not to be blocked. This takes THOUSANDS of reps with HOURS of practice every week. This can only be done with one long-snapper, one holder, and one kicker if they are going to become perfect.

3) The pressure on the snapper to be perfect is higher than at just about any other position. How many other positions do you know of that can’t mess up even once. How many receivers have never missed a catch? How many RB’s have never fumbled? How many kickers have never missed a kick? But if a snapper mis-places more than 1 snap in a season, he’ll more than likely lose his job. With a position like that, do you really want to leave it up to a normal o-lineman who doesn’t have as much time to practice?

I don’t think so, thanks for the opinion.

Aggravated.

Gastrologically irritated.

Cranially scoffed.

Eye gouged.

Financially disadvantaged from:
a) replacing TV’s
b) installing clear, protective shields between recliner and tv
c) missing work from hang-overs.

Yeah, I knew someone would take it to this extreme. Obviously Brooklyn and Ben, most NFL types see the value in LS. I do however, agree that with all the variables involved in roster spots, that a guy like Van Roten doesn’t perfect his snaps in the offseason to gain an edge to stick.

But ahead of goode, would IMO be Kuhn. I like the guy; but if your FB can’t pick up 3rd and short on 75% of the tries, I just don’t see why a HB or TE can’t provide a better option for considerably less $$.

One reason that you don’t have the center play LS is that he needs to spend his time with the offense, not the specialists. If you start splitting his time between offense and specialists, you get bad QB/C exchanges and bad long snaps. Not to mention a center who isn’t in sync with the rest of the O line. And as SCFPackFan said, LS is not an easy position. You have to accurate snap the ball 8 yards between your legs. Go try it.

Actually, I probably would have said “Wow” to your face as well. I understand your thought process, but you’re oversimplifying a complex issue. If it was that easy, every team would do it.

Although I like the idea Stroh, I hope and pray that Newhouse is not on the field at any time this season for the Packers. If he’s starting that means IMO at least every other lineman is pretty weak if they can’t beat him out. Rookie or not, Newhouse is absolutely horrible. Every time I see a clip where their talking about the Packers offensive line, there’s Newhouse getting beat. Bull rush, speed, swim move, all and any give him problems. I’m not bagging on your opinion, just really hoping Newhouse is not in Packers plans, at least for anything other than a backup.

I’m with you on that on Oppy. I think Tretter is the Packers center of 2014 for sure, maybe sooner. We know what we have in EDS so I wonder if there’s much more of a ceiling. IMO Datko is the dark horse for right tackle. I’d love to see Sherrod step in and kick butt and take the job. The second surgery concerns me though. Barclay really has to improve his pass protection but damn, the kid can run block. Newhouse should never play unless he’s the only healthy player on the roster that Sunday. He CAN’T run block whatsoever and he’s not much of a pass blocker. Not great traits for a offensive lineman and a $110 million QB!

I almoat entirely agree with your potential O-line. Barclay got some big reps during the season, so I’m assuming he has a leg up on Datko. Although I like Datko’s potential, I’m thinking it might be Barclay come cut time.
But my question for you is in your potential O-line, who is the backup center? Tretter? Lang? That’s where I get stuck when I’m trying to figure the O-line final roster. OTAs and Training camp will give us a better answer but I’m hoping a dark horse candidate emerges to the point where we are forced to keep 9 O-lineman.
