Well it seems as if our hog mollie is out for a few weeks, now we have to replace him, but with who? we have 3 guards/centers in the rotation. My personal opinion is to give the start to Velasco. He looked somewhat ok as the center on monday night. If he can just get a little push then the rushing attack will be primed. I still think amini is total garbage and that this is his final year as a pro on our team. Also was not a fan of Scott, he seems like he is overweight and not in game shape.

Ron Rivera confirmed that Amini Silatolu will start at left guard against the #Packers. #GBvsCAR

Rivera praising work of Amini Silatolu. He'll start at LG Sunday with Andrew Norwell out.

 

Personally, I'm ok with Amini at LG as long as Kalil is at Center, that should not be too bad. 

Wonder what will happen with Daryl Williams?   Once again, I doubt we want to mess with the line too much with Norwell out.

One reason not to put Velasco in at LG is that Kalil is coming off an injury.  Want to keep Velasco available as backup Center.  Also Velasco was dealing with an injury earlier this week, while, at least to our knowledge, Amini is fully healthy,

How about Amini since he did a fine job filling in against the Colts?

Well, the Colts d-line isn't anything special and the rain put both defensive lines at a disadvantage.  Hence why we didn't much of a pass rush, especially late in the game when the field became soakin wet.  So, Amini's gameplay on Monday wasn't all Amini.  The rain helped.

The field was soaking wet the whole game.  The pass rush got gassed due to the type of game it became. Amini is adequate at he is aggressive.  He will do for now

The best option are Amini and Williams, we need to be physical against Greenbay.

    • 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.
