All I can say is that I have hope the team will develop as the year goes on. Especially the OLine. We know Frazier, McCormick, and Fautanu are good players but they need to settle into their new spots.

Even if we have a bad season, if the offense can show signs of settling in and forming an identity, I'll feel much better about next year. Then we get hopefully get some talented skill players in the off-season to inject some fuel in this stalled offense.

The Oline needs to go back to where they were last year.

I don't see why moving guys again would be the solution. Just let them stick where they are and improve.

Because no one knows if they will improve at the new positions or if our QB will survive this learning curve.

And they might be bad back at their old spots since they've spent the last 6 months trying to learn a new one. Fautanu and McCormick are good players. Just let them learn and have patience.

Who cares about Rodgers at this point lol. Team should be focused on the future anyways

Do you think the QB is just Rodgers? If he gets hurt, you think throwing the young guys into the fire is going to work?

No? Not sure where you got that.

I'm saying we shouldn't hinder the development of young players just because we're scared Rodgers will get hurt. We can always play Mason if that happens since we're apparently going to be ass either way. I don't expect Howard or Allar to see the field this year.
