I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.
At least you got your last line right. I'm fairly sure a whole lot more of those successful runs were up the middle/in the guard-center gap. And a lot of failed outside runs were to Bakhtiari's side. Claiming Myers had a good block on "one play" is both blind and stupid. Somebody said Myers regressed after the injury in his second season ....... maybe some. It's also possible the Guard play wasn't as good.
As for Linsley, he was good too, although I still don't think he was as good as Myers. And Linsley was commanding way too much money. It was a good move to let him go.

Tex, as my gramp would say, "Your eyes must be brown, cause you are full of shit"
Cease and desist with your evaluation of Oline personnel.
You have no idea what you are talking about.
So you're saying the team did NOT run with great success inside and did NOT generally have very little success running outside either left or right? Seriously?

I don't see where he said that.
I don't know who he played for, but it reminds me a lot of Art Briles' offense: quick to formation, widely spaced receivers, deep routes, small route tree. This forces the defense to play a lot of man. QB reads only left or right half of the field, picks his target based on alignment and feasts off the fourth-best receiver being better than the fourth-best DB. Throw in QB/RB delayed handoff drawing safetys close, pulling OL on every play, and CFB's more generous downfield-blocking tolerance, and it's a vicious concept that doesn't translate well to the pros.

Might just go to his five-car garage and have an epiphany after tripping over the lawnmower.

Rodgers buddies all void tomorrow so today should be telling about the future for him,

Didn't Leonhard turn down the Packers DC job 2 years ago?

In a few hours the 16M in dead cap space for the void contracts hits. Even if we clear up 16 million with restructures, it’ll still just bring us back to breaking even. This is where you get to the point in the road where you already kicked the can.

And this, along with trading away draft picks to move up constantly is what I hammer Gutes for.

I still say Myers is the best player in the current O Line, and he is about as good as Linsley was when he demanded too much money and was let go, and the proof of that is the excellent inside running game the Packers have had the past couple of years.

What team without a rookie contract QB isn’t in cap hell right now?
TEX refer to Susan Powers catch phrase with all of this . He's fine. But he's just fine. But hes not our our best OL; and hes not nearly as good as Linsley
LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?
Way better for the money than Linsley demanded - and got - from the Chargers or whoever. And other than Jenkins before his knee injury, nobody in the O Line has played better, and that includes the sacred cow.

Fair but give it a fewIt's funny - I think everyone thought Goff was overpaid but with how QB contracts have gone he is now a deal
I would say that for all practical purposes, the concept of "cap hell" doesn't exist. However, for those who do believe in that sort of thing, which would you rather have, a chronic loser team (think the Lions) that is in good shape cap-wise, OR a team that has a record like the Packers have had for 3+ decades with Favre and Rodgers?

The problem with your either/or is that it's not quite the truth. The Packers were in good shape cap-wise for years, even with Rodgers, when Ted was at the helm. He may have been even a bit too careful. But he did manage the cap very well. Gutes had that advantage when he took over, and he's used that all up and then some.
And yes, the Packers are in a cap hell. Wait to hear people start yelling when the Packers don't sign anyone in free agency because they can't afford to, or when a good player walks because the team couldn't afford the next contract.
