PACKERS UPDATE

Offensive line changes are likely

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Coach Mike McCarthy hinted strongly that LT Chad Clifton and RT Mark Tauscher will start Sunday.

Clifton, in his 10th season, hasn't played a full game since the opener because of a right high ankle sprain. Tauscher, also in his 10th season, tore his left ACL on Dec. 7 against the Texans.

The Packers allowed six of their league-high 31 sacks Sunday against the Vikings. Rookie T.J. Lang started on the left and third-year player Allen Barbre on the right.

"No substitute for experience," McCarthy said. "And Mark Tauscher and Chad Clifton have a ton of it."
