Tretter may get stouter. Corey Linsley will never be more athletic.

Teach one of them to play tackle.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.

This season: Rank 1) play the healthiest guy 2) play the guy who works best with the rest of the line. Next year and beyond: Training camp battle, best man wins. Tretter still backs up rest of line - if he starts, and injury comes up, double switch. Optimal: Linsley wins starting job, Tretter backs up the inside three positions and Packers draft two tackles (Clifton and Tauscher) in May."Never, never ever support a punk like mraynrand.

Tretter already does. Campen told me Tretter would back up the entire line (but really only the guard and center positions).Originally posted by Maxie the Taxi View PostTeach one of them to play tackle."Never, never ever support a punk like mraynrand.

Tretter. Tretter has a chance to another Mike Flanagan. Linsley has a chance to be another Scott Wells.I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

It reminds me of the Bowman/Curry era as Packer Center. I think ultimately Linsley will end up as the starting Center with Tretter starting elsewhere in the O Line and being the primary back up Center in case of injury. I have a pretty low opinion of the Packer O Line in general, but these two have been bright spots - sometimes anyway.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

I agree with your comparisons.Originally posted by Joemailman View PostTretter. Tretter has a chance to another Mike Flanagan. Linsley has a chance to be another Scott Wells.
Tretter & Linsley are both starting centers. No way does either play another position where they are below average players. One of them will move on to new team.

I like Linsley cause I pegged him out of the draft as being our steal and I like being right (because it's a rarity)
He's an ex primetime wrestler like Tim Krumrie. Those guys are tough maulers. I dig him.TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER
