Nads786 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Discuss. I think they hired him to hop on the Nagy and McVay train. I bet he's a great communicator and can work with younger players. I think it's a red flag that no other team interviewed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beardown3231 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 It all hinges on how he connects with Rodgers, and knowing what I know about Rodgers' closest media buddy and his comments on LaFleur, Rodgers loves this move. Unfortunately I still don't love the Packers' roster. I think they're an 8-9 win team in 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinz D. Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I was hoping for McDaniels. Someone to really bottom out that organization. LaFleur is probably a good hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been raving about LaFleur since GB fired McCarthy and I have no doubts that it was coming from Rodgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abstract_thought Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I'm not impressed by his work with the Titans (22nd in offense DVOA and 25th in passing DVOA), but the personnel there wasn't ideal. It's an interesting hire but it seems somewhat premature and I wonder how quickly Rodgers will lose trust in him if things go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what your point is but my point is that the Packer job was really not that attractive. I knew McDaniels was a no go but this hire wreaks of .... of....something...

I read that TEN had the top would be completion percentage in the league, so I suppose that implies that the QB was an issue but the play design was creating open receivers. Only time will tell.

TankWilliams Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I actually think this is a bad one, the offense was not significantly improved in Tennessee after his hiring, even when Mariota was healthy. First McVay, then Nagy, they are hoping to cash in, but I don't think its a high percentage hire, and LaFleur hasn't had tutors like Andy Reid, he had a year as OC for McVay, and then a year as OC for another new hc in Vrabel. Could work out, but think less likely so than McVay and Nagy were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmike90 Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I feel GB are sorta missing the point here...every other team who has brought in one of the young innovative OCs has paired them with a young QB...not a guy like Rodgers...he is basically his own OC at this point in his career...if anything they needed a leader like Dan Campbell or a quality defensive guy...happy they have taken this route but just seems a bit strange.
