Life without Bakhtiari

[RashanGary]

I’d like to see Jenkins just for the hell of it. Maybe it makes the decision easier

[Bretsky]

I agree. I don’t know how to sign Jones and Bach and I really like ajo

[bobblehead]

Bakh hurt his chest. He will be back sooner than later. You sign the franchise LT. Let Jones walk. Today sucked, lets not get stupid.

Might have cracked ribs. That’s a few weeks. He’s not gonna want to play with that. But I think we’ve determined Turner is a sure fire cut as soon as the season is over

Big dick Nick foles is starting to turn da bears into a contender. Ugh.

Our Rick, Wisconsin Rick Wagner looked clumsy as fuck in that left sided stance. It looked like he was thinking about his setup like I do when i switch to my right handed club on the golf course. I can swing left or right, but I only use the right handed club if I’m in trouble and can’t swing left. I don’t think he’s the answer. Let’s try Jenkins. Kid can make himself a lot of money if he’s serviceable.

[HarveyWallbangers]

Sounds like Bakh might be fine. Wagner was horrid as LT.

This. All day every day. Aaron Jones is a good running back but there are way more guys capable of toting the rock than their are being a booked tackle.

Agree. Turner has only one skill. 2nd level engagement. Thats not enough in this league.

Also agree. Switching sides isn't as easy as some make it sound. And agree with using Jenkins there. He is the 2nd best OL and plays on the left side. I'd prefer him out there to wagner.

My eyes tend to flow to the ball on run plays, but theoretically he should be able to reach when he’s the backside tackle on stretch plays. Unfortunately we don’t see much cuz our RB can’t do it.

[texaspackerbacker]

I haven't heard anything other than chest injury, but I too think it probably isn't very serious. If QBs and RBs can play that way, it ought to be easier for an O Lineman.

Bakhtiari and the O Line got exposed Sunday probably more than any other aspect of the Packers. No way we could run over Bakhtiari's spot. And regarding pass blocking, I don't know if it is a defect in the blocking scheme or Bakhtiari having a "it's not my job" kind of attitude, but I'm getting fed up with outside blitzers racing right past him with no adjustment on his part to get them. That, it seems to me, is compounded by the fact that he lines up the way he does - which to me is a giveaway that he is gonna block inward on pass plays. I know the guy is a sacred cow to so many of ya'all, but I can't help thinking he is about a half step above ordinary - fairly good but not great like so many think.

It seemed a weird game plan. Hardly any misdirection and entirely too focused on throwing.

Again, Rodgers was so focused on Adams, he missed reads and held the ball too long.

Hopefully, just a one off cluster and not a sign of the future. Can't help but think back a few years to the Broncos game that exposed the offense..

I'm more talking about his deficiencies in other areas. Below average pass blocker. Not great in straight up run blocking where he must engage a large man right in front of him.

Tampa is very good against the run, which is why we went pass heavy. It was working until it wasn't. Just like I often say, running is a must. Once Bakh went down and the Tampa D stopped honoring the run they pinned back the ears and game was over.

He was definitely a theory piece to fit into the outside zone scheme. Since it’s only a theory here and we can’t run that style of offense with the horses we have, Turner is a complete waste of space.
