Slips and falls - doesn't use bull rush when he should be. It's excellent video.
Reminds me of Gary in his first year in that video. The drive is there, but he has a lot of work to do before he becomes a real contributor. My guess is that they start him off like Gary as a situational guy until LVN learns more moves and to recognize plays. Unless he has a huge jump in TC, I don't expect a lot from him this year.
This appears to be a training year for the team with the hope of competing next year. But, if we can challenge for a playoff spot or make it harder for someone else in the division it'll be a decent win.

Dude was a hockey player until his sophomore season in high school. He is still learning how to play the sport.

Look for the team to come on strong towards the end of the year. If they do that, woe to the rest of the league in 2024.
As long as they beat CHI and MIN, lose the rest but show improvement through the year I'm good. High draft picks again. Win more games, more fun sundays.
I'm hoping to see a new offense as well. It was tough to watch the MM offense go stale, staler, and then fun to watch MLF's motion-scheme offense for a year only to go back to stale until last year's stalest. Should make for a more entertaining style of play, for sure.

That's terrifying. JJ Watt played hockey, too. Can you imagine these 2 coming at you on skates at 20+ MPH?

That was a fun offense to watch. I hated losing it.

Isn't this mostly on MLF though? Are people saying that Rodgers completely changed the offense and went away from motion-scheme? Certainly, he did at times with audibles and such but it seems like the overall offensive design is on MLF. Is he such a giant pussy that he couldn't address it at all with Rodgers?
Based on his idiocy at not firing the most incompetent Special Teams coach we've ever seen and thereby costing us a decent shot at the Super Bowl, I know the answer to your last sentence.

Good point! My apologies for wandering. I am really excited about Van Ness. Looks like a beast with a lot of upside.
The fact that Bellicheat wanted him is enough for me. He, like Gary when he was drafted, has the potential to be so disruptive.

In the NFL pecking order superstar athlete trumps head coach every time.

Yup....just gotta be patient so he can DEVELOP a bag of tricks for that pass rush.
Gary took off about middle of 2nd season & was more situational in first season. I'd expect a lot of the same from Van Ness this year but I know it'll be fun to watch.

It is. Running a bunch of rookie recievers, the most talented one needing a lot of work on basic position skills and both higher ones missing a bunch of time due to injuries likely lead to greatly simplifying the offense.
But of course Watson and Doubs' injuries and inexperience were also Rodgers' fault. If only he'd been in OTAs and mini camps Watson's surgery would have miraculously healed faster.
It's also Rodgers' fault Van Ness might not be a day one starter. I mean, yeah, he's inexperienced but if Rodgers hadn't held up the trade with the Jets the NFL could have moved up the draft so Van Ness and every rookie in the league would get more time with pro coaches before the season and it wouldn't have distracted Van Ness from learning his position.
Give it a rest Rodgers ballwasher. Your really isn't funny anymore.
What does Amari Rodgers have to do with LVN?

They both have 2 legs. Close enough for Herschel. He loves connecting Packers draft picks with busts from the past.
There are some busts from the past I'd like to connect with.

We talkin’ boobs or nuts?
The fact LVN's sisters are hot does kind of add a little cherry on top of a good pick by Gute. It won't suck having these two added to the mix on Game Days at Lambeau.

The fact that there is an impressive highlight reel of Amari Rodgers on YouTube proves this point. Shocked I tells ya.
@mrtundra posted:But can they tackle?
They won't need to tackle. Just give them cheerleading outfits, and put them on the sideline. Once the opponents see them they won't be able to stop looking. They won't notice all the open receivers running thru their secondary. If the offense still sputters a little, it will be because Jordan Love will be a little confused as to which open receiver to throw to.
Read on PFT that he signed his contract today.
The new PFT is a lot cleaner, but no comments?
Someone's going to get the vapors over this...
