Give MLF and Rodgers 13 years together like those two and I bet they'd maybe understand the system a little better.

Sure, but Brady bought into BB’s system from day one, and BB has been building a scheme around his personnel, especially Brady, and giving him weapons that accentuate his abilities, or lack of them in all honesty.  When your QB becomes an immobile statue, your scheme and personnel better accommodate that.  

But no doubt, getting it right will take time - not 13 years, LOL.  No disagreement there.

This is actually what gives me some hope about the offense going forward.  The false starts and delay of game issues should be reasonably easy to fix, and the league has already told the refs to ease back on the holding calls.  The offense will improve significantly if Rodgers stops missing easy throws, and the WR's stop dropping chain moving completions.  The focus all seems to be on MLF, but players not executing some fundamental tasks are a big part of what's ailing the offense.  Rodgers had a beautiful throw to Tonyan yesterday that should have been a long TD, but Tonyan clearly eased up half way through his route, and the ball ends up a yard out of his reach.  That's not on MLF, that's the players not executing the offense.

I dont know who is focusing on just MLF or just Rodgers, but theyre wrong... its 'entire unit' lack of rhythm and issues.

@Shanedorf literally nothing you’re doing in life right now is more important than dropping it immediately and making this damn GDT.  Wife having a baby?  Cool, kiss her and the baby and calmly walk into the waiting room and start typing.  Boss got you working overtime?  Quit your damn job now - you’re smart and can get another one.  Chop chop man.

@Shanedorf  Can we get a week 4 GDT?   Less than 72 hours and the natives are restless.  

Better do something soon or someone might do something irrational and make one.

Don't forget to give @CWood21 a couple tags during the week to keep the magic going.  You don't even have to say anything.

Just rewatched the All-22.  No keen insights, but just a few points:

-Overall, the offense wasn't nearly as bad as they've been made out to be.  A couple of drives in the 3rd quarter (one killed by penalty and the weird throwaways--we know now that one was a bad RPO-- and the other killed by an MVS drop on a short third down which was also a nice play by the defender) made us seem much worse than we were.

-The other thing that made the offense look worse than they were was the super long drives the defense gave up in the first half.  Two, giant, clock-using drives in the first half really kept the ball out of the offense's hands.  The Packers moved the ball quite well otherwise, including overcoming 2 false start penalties.  I've sort of heard grumblings that the ToP differential was the offense's fault, but it was more on the defense.

-This really was an an example all day of the bend-but-not-break philosophy ultimately working well.  When the offense is running so many plays, they are just bound to start making mistakes sooner or later.  While Denver did a good job of executing most of the first half, it just wasn't sustainable.  When Denver was moving the ball, we constantly had two down lineman, and Denver would just run the ball into where they weren't, sending extra blockers for good measure.  6-7 free yards every time.  There were a few missed tackles, but besides the King one in the open field, none too egregious.  As has been pointed out before, they cheated on the 4th and goal and a lineman dragged the back into the endzone.  Originally I was critical of the tackling there, but it really wasn't that bad--it's hard to tackle two guys at the same time, particularly when one is a 300 pound lineman.  

-King really had a rough game.  Hope he bounces back.

-I actually saw Graham open a couple of times.

-MVS had a real nice route that got ruined by a late stunt getting into Rodgers face.  

-New guy made a nice play to stop that long first kickoff return from becoming worse than it was.

Good stuff.

The offense was just a few simple plays away from having a good day.
