Tyler Larsen , the next Norwell?

Tyler Larsen looked better at center last night against a stout defense than Gradkowski had looked all year. It took an injury to discover this, just like it did with Norwell. 

Unfortunately, it is too little too late. The season is over. If the coaching staff had recognized this earlier the Panthers may still have a chance. Gradkowski's poor play definitely added to the losses. 

Should the coaching staff be criticized for not seeing it, or praised for eventually being forced to get it right due to injuries?

I personally wasn't surprised by Larsen playing well.  He was a high regarded Guard coming out of Utah State. Projected to be drafted anywhere between 3rd-5th round.   I was more surprised he's bounced around as he has and also being undrafted.  I do believe he could be the next Norwell.  Maybe a good fit for any guard or center position.  Trai Turner looked very well at RT.

If all healthy wonder who a LT Norwell, LG Laren, C Kalil, RG Trai Turner, RT Daryl Williams would look.   IMO that would be a road grading line. 

i don't want to wonder what norwell at left tackle looks like

      It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).

      Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
