Newhouse stinks

[Harlan Huckleby]

Fear not! The Packers have signed Tackle extraordinaire Herb Taylor!

Another TCU tackle. He & Newhouse probably played on same line, TT is looking for more of that Newhouse magic. Scary to think that Newhouse is undoubtably much better.

I'll bet you $10,000 that experience doesn't mean squat this time.

F*** your $10,000, you don't have $10,000. Let's bet a LaBamba bigger-than-your-head chorizo burrito slathered with green picante and jalapeños. The loser has to eat the f***er...and suffer the consequences the next day.

I predict he will sit only Bulaga and the other obviously injured starters (Clifton, Jennings, Bishop). He won't he pull any healthy starters unless the outcome is already decided.

He gets Peppers instead

I'll be pissed at MM if he doesn't keep a TE or RB in there to help Newhouse Sunday night.

There lies the complication
Keep an extra TE in and then you have one less WR

Our best route runner is out and that leaves the best CB to shut down Jordy and an additional person in the secondary to help out on Finley

Newhouse is rapidly climbing the "Most Hated Packer" ladder. Will he reach Gabe Wilkins, Buckley or Carroll status, or will he top out at 'Ole Cleedeeus levels? If you remember, 'Ole Cleedeeus was driven out of town - pitchforks and boiling oil....

The health and well being of our fabulous QB should be priority #1. Without him we won't be in Indy in Feb.

JJ steps up big. You heard it here first.

[Joemailman]

I think Newhouse will rebound. Being able to hear the snap count will help him. I'm more worried about EDS at LG.

Jeez. According to FO, Newhouse is tied for 4th in sacks allowed this year. Yikes! Could be worse, I guess... Chicago has 2 tackles on there. Maybe not a coincidence that their QB is gone.

The worst lineman in the NFL can't really be named Guy Whimper. That is a gag.

nah, fans don't hate low round draft picks who are backups.

[Upnorth]

Great great game newhouse last night. All the oline played well. Not bad for 3 backups.

Glad to see someone bump a negative thread with a positive comment where it's due. Not to turn negative, but I'm more concerned going into the playoffs about the run defense and the lack of pressure from the D than protecting Rodgers. Rodgers can create some space himself. Just give him and the receivers a little time and look what they can do. The D can't seem to get teams off the field. We are very similar to New England in a lot of respects. Everyone knows how good our QB and receivers are, we don't have much of a run game and our defense is bend, don't break, but gives up too many yards and doesn't get teams off the field on 3rd down enough. It would be interesting if that was the Super Bowl matchup. Wonder what the over/under on points would be.

Amazing job by Newhouse; took his play to an unseen level.

One thing that will be a really big help for Newhouse will be that bye week. He's a young guy who's bounced around a lot. I think a good full week being able to just work on the details of his pass set will help him with consistency.

He's a young guy. He's going from Jared Allen to Jason Pierre Paul to Tamba Hali to Julius Peppers without so much as a breath of fresh air. . . . He hasn't had a lot of LT work in his short career and came out of a non-pro technique college. It doesn't sound like a lot, but I think taking a step back for a week and getting those basic things sured up a little can help him down the stretch.
