ccecilnosebleed Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 (edited) I am not on the “Rodgers is done” bandwagon nor am I necessarily believing he’s still capable of GOAT level. I think to some degree we should be thankful that we appear to have a defense that doesn’t require our QB to play at GOAT level to win a game, but who still has enough savvy and tricks and talent to get the job done. It sure seems like he’s developed bad habits as a result of a few major injuries and being allowed to hold on to the ball for too long. Habits are easy to make and hard to break. Maybe it’s just hard for many to admit that a guy who is capable of playing at GOAT level could also be capable of developing bad habits more quickly or at a later age than other GOAT qbs.

Then I would assume we won't need to hear anything more about MM's antiquated offense because we certainly aren't seeing rubs or pics or crossers, or jet sweeps, or any of the actions that come with those things Oh Frick I just said stop bringing up the pain from 07 fella. That was it. I don’t care much to beat on MM or on MLF. MM made BF great again and won us a SB. MLF has us 3-0. I am done with the half empty glass tonight. Going to rewatch Gary’s sack. Yep I will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think many of us were hoping MLF would bring in a new scheme that would prohibit Rodgers from falling back on some of these bad habits. It’s too soon to tell if MLF’s new scheme will achieve this, but what we’re seeing now is a bit concerning - not panic level yet. As everyone likes to point out, we’re 3-0. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hope was we were going to see a much more developed run game to set up play action. Instead we've seen 30 WR screens per game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our QB isn't going to get any younger. Nor is he going to get any cheaper. Do head coaches/play callers get better with age, or do they stay stuck in their ways? It's not like LaFleur is new to offensive philosophies. No clue...but i sure as **** am not gonna judge a guy 3 weeks into a new gig, especially when he came away with victories in each game. How much of what we're seeing is growing pains versus just the reality of our situation? Again...no clue. But its irrational to be certain its one thing or another. Give it time, perhaps it is a dog **** scheme that will never work. Perhaps it isnt. As far as not posting negative things, bite me, my postings are way more valid than yours. According to you, perhaps. Regardless, drawing conclusions and over-analying cherry picked situations this early is hilarious to me. So i will continue to contribute by laughing at you.

What do you think of the outside zone ? I'm still gonna wait and see but I'm not a fan of the concept in 2019 and beyond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish we didn't run it so much and run so many bootleg play action reads off of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebpackfan Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Except everyone but you has been telling him to stop taking unnecessary hits. Up 8, your defense is great, in the 3rd game of the season. Stay upright, keep Boyle on the bench, go to 3 and 0. Mission accomplished. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebpackfan Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 The sad thing is, I am probably more of a Rodgers skeptic than most here. But, this cherry-picking screenshots to somehow prove some negative point about Rodgers is just ridic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaFleur has been riding Pettine's coat tails in these victories. He's not the reason for them. He's part of the reason we're overtaxing our defense. We have a full year of him with the Titans to judge his philosophies. I was assured that he would run things differently with a good QB under center. So far it's been the same lousy stuff. Again, who is posting anything with any certainty? These are simply things that occurred. They are pieces of data that we can attempt to use to extrapolate. If all you want is to post twitter snapshots about the various positive things the packers have done, that's cool. But others don't have to do the same. I was pretty damn clear in the title this wasn't going to be an ***-kissing thread. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That hit is necessary to playing QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
