Doesn't have to be just screens. RB's can run routes too. Maybe we ought to send Stubby some David Johnson video tape.

One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.
John Maxymuk, Packers By The Numbers
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
What worked as per what I saw was coming with a Safety or a Corner. When LBs came in, Rodgers just shed 'em like a duck in water. He had a harder time escaping speedy DBs though. I'm not sure if screens or something else are the solution to that. It seems to me, if we screened with a DB chasing Rodgers, 1 the play might not have time to set up and 2 the speedy DB probably could track down our RB from behind for a short gain. McCarthy's weakness seems to be adjusting on the fly - like when a team finds something that works like what you mentioned.
The subject of this thread, Ty Montgomery, was a large part of the problem. Having him at RB a full camp and preseason might get him shaped up as a pass blocker.
What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

these days screens just don't work anymore (unless maybe if they're called at the line when a blitz is read).
JSO said Linsley is "the Packers' future at center." Anyone agree with that?
No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
Prefer Tretter. Think JSO is only saying that because for now, on March 1 or whatever day it might be, he will not be on the team without a new contract.

I also prefer Tretter. I think that he is a better overall athlete and gets to the second level better. He is also a smarter football player and does a nice job setting the line. He is also really good at getting out front on screens.
I would rather see Monty split reps with another running back, whether it is Lacy or someone else. I would like to see him in a Thurman Thomas type role catching the ball out of the backfield and not just sending him into the flat to be mirrored by an OLB.

J.C. Tretter dressed for 31 and started only 10 games in four seasons.

Tretter is the superior player, but health is an issue it seems.
I like this Montgomery kid. I'm rooting for him.

Me too. I know some people have expressed concern about his durability and I share that concern as well. Hopefully he'll take the offseason to learn how to run lower and behind his pads more. As has also been mentioned, he needs to learn how to pass protect more reliably but I don't see that being a long-term concern.
I'm convinced he'll be a serious weapon as long as he can stay healthy. He and a healthy and stealthy Lacy would make a serious combination. Lacy obviously doesn't need to be 230 but I'm a bit worried about his taste for southern cooking.
He'll take his 88 jersey, get himself some white duct tape at the Walmart, and turn it into a 38.
Anyone remember that Favre to Havner jersey transformation video?
