Cisco IP Phone and lost packets

I have an issue that I can't quite wrap my head around.  I have been getting complaints about voice quality issues the past few weeks.  If I http to a users phone who is complaining, and look at the Rcvr Lost Packets its at like 50.  This phone is plugged into a Cisco 6513 switch.  This switch has 8 switch blades and I get Rcvr packet loss on all blades I plug the IP Phones into.  I wouldn't think all 8 blades are bad.  For test purposes, I grabbed a cisco 3560G and plugged two IP phones in, and the Rcvr Lost Packets has been at 0 for a couple hours now.  The switchport on the 6513 that I'm seeing dropped packets on looks like the following:

interface GigabitEthernet1/14
 no ip address
 switchport
 switchport mode access
 spanning-tree portfast

The 3560G that I'm testing with basically has no configuration other than an IP and Gateway:  Ports have not configuration, just default.

Any ideas?  I have no clue what is causing this.

No I havn't tried that, but its about 4 different models of the Cisco IP phone.  I've moved 8 users over to the 3560G and they are all at 0% packet loss.  All other phones on the cisco 6513 show packet loss.

Here's the "show int" for a port I have an IP phone in now that is showing packet loss:
