Left tackle Max Starks said Tuesday that it is premature to assume rookie first-round draft pick Maurkice Pouncey is going to overtake Justin Hartwig at center.

Starks better be worrying he isn't replaced. Nobody is safe.
Put Hills, Foster, Pouncey, Legursky and Scott out there and I doubt there'd be much of a drop-off from that "first team" O-line I watched.

After the first game that is pretty much what I was thinking. I have been one of Hartwigs biggest critics. Stark may need to see more of Pouncey, but I know I have seen enough of Hartwig. I just hope someday hearing Stark saying " that rookie hasn't won the LT job just yet."

Sorry, but the more I hear about Hartwig, the more the anger rises in me.

Brilliantly stated Ed. :thumbsup:
I've never been impressed with Hartwig but I am very impressed with Pouncey thus far. :applaudit:
Shut up Max and concentrate on your own backyard. :coffee:
