OK, think about a team missing their BEST OFFENSIVE LINEMAN all year! (Davis Bakhtiari) Missing their second best offensive lineman, (AND, most versatile) for the REST of the year! (Elgton Jenkins). And, the rookie starting center! (Josh Myers) And, this team is STILL WINNING!
The Green Bay Packers!!!!!
First, coaches: Adam Stenavich and Luke Butkus! WOW! What a great job! Woking with young players, and free agent signing, these two people have kept the Packers moving the football!
Starting Offensive Line as of this week?
LT - Yosh Nijman 6'7" - 314 lbs - Year 2
LG - Jon Runyan 6'4" - 307 lbs - Year 2
C - Lucas Patrick 6'3" - 313 lbs - Year 5
RG - Royce Newman 6'5" - 310 lbs - Rookie
RT - Billy Turner 6'5" - 310 lbs - Year 8
First, the youth! Nijman, Runyan & Newman are babies (BUT BIG BABIES) This group has been amazing! Year 5 - Lucas Patrick, is one of those players you cheer for every year!!! Even making the team was a big question! Playing different positions! Settling in at center, a position, like the QB, you touch the ball every play, and, you call the blocking scheme every play! Lucas Patrick has been a HUGE plus! The vet, holding this group together, Billy Turner! He was a GIANT free agent signing by Gutekunst! When you listen to his interviews, he has that calm and cool and under control feel. You know that no moment is too big for Billy!
In the wings:
Ben Braden - 6'6" - 329 lbs - Year 2
Jake Hanson - 6'4" - 296 lbs - Year 1
Dennis Kelly - 6'8" - 321 lbs - Year 9
A nice mix of youth and vets. With David Bakhtiari trying to get back, this group looks better and better!
So, THREE CHEERS FOR THE BIG GUYS!!!!
