So Aaron Rodgers is your guy, eh?
If so, no team in NFL history has ever put as much emphasis on 2nd and 3rd string quarterbacks as the Packers just did this weekend.
Says new Minnesota Vikings all-pro defensive end Jared Allen:
"The only problem we're going to have is to see who hits the quarterback first."

Allen won't have to worry about that not after the way Clifton handled him last time...

You think Clifton can shut down Jared Allen one on one every play for an entire game?
If so, you're completely out of your mind.

I didn't say that he would. I said that Tauscher is capable of shutting him down for lots of the game. He did it against Kerney and Kerney is about the same skill level and type of End allen is. I expect for Allen to get some pressures. but College will be able to come help out which leaves Wells and Spitz/Colston one on one with Williams and Williams which i don't mind as much.

Well, according to TT he is. I see no problem getting more competition in case things don't pan out the way you expect. I guess TT didn't want to make the same mistake the Vikings made with Jackson.

"You think Clifton can shut down Jared Allen one on one every play for an entire game?"
I really doubt any good tackle can shut down any good DE on every single play and I really doubt anyone is saying that. However, you're saying that the Packers should somehow be scared because the Vikings have Allen.
From NFL.com's week 9 assessment vs. the Chiefs.
"Key stat
The Packers, led by left tackle Chad Clifton, did a good job of keeping Chiefs defensive end Jared Allen in check, limiting the NFL's sack leader to just half a sack and two tackles. Allen had six sacks in his previous two games."
As I have been saying, it's seriously not that much of a concern for the Packers as it is for other teams, lol.

Chad Clifton may struggle at times when run blocking, zbs isn't his thing, but when healthy he might be the best pass blocking OT in the game, Allen isnt the only DE Clifton shut down. He also shut Umenyora down dwice last year. Oh and Kevin Williams didn't do **** on passing plays last year and Jason Spitz has turned into one of the best pass blocking guards in football. He'll handle Kevin Williams all game long by himself, neither Williams nor Allen will manage a single sack I guarantee it.
There shall be a moaning and nashing of teeth in viking land when Clif-tron squats on Jared Allen
