what makes you think either would play LG?

If you're athletic enough and intellectual enough to be starting o linemen in the NFL you should be able to fill in as a stop gap for a game or two out of position. Obviously they are not going to be a perfect fit over there, but I want the 5 most talented guys on the field. We all know what Amini is about already.

I certainly would not argue that logic. But having this staff be here for 5 years, they rarely, if ever play someone at a position without practicing there, unless desperation I assume.

i dont believe that for a second and you would have a tough time selling me on it. Packers have some real good players on that line then add the LBrs, Colts aren't even close.

Closer than you think.

Not to mention, they could be without their starting Top 2 corners this weekend as well.  

Only thing is, they only give up 18 ppg, that helps when you have a QB like Rodgers not throwing picks.

I agree with that, but the coaches have been surprisingly adaptive to change over the last 11 games. If you remember what happened to Cam the last time Amini started a game at LG I would say this is desperation. If Remmers is capable of playing and learning both RT and C I find it hard to believe he would be lost at G.

The edge rushers and LB's for the Packers are far, far superior to what the Colts have but I'll take Parry, Anderson and Langford over Daniels, Pennel' and Raji every time. Raji has been a bust after a solid rookie year, Daniels is just ok and Pennell sucks.

As a whole GB's defense is much better but the Colts have a superior interior DL.

Raji had been hurt and he certainly isn't a bust. I have watched a handful of games and they are good up front. You left out their best player in Donte Jones. You will hear his names called a few times this weekend.

    • There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years. 
    • All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens
    • Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
