Our Offense

All three games were against teams with very good defenses. If they struggle against the Saints then it's really time to be concerned.

Our WR's will be getting mugged a lot less now that the real refs are back.

They also need to scheme better for the cover 2 since they will see plenty of it.

Finley was supposed to be our cover2 buster.

I believe that's been part of the issue. As a unit the offense needs to learn more patience. A quick strike is nice, but to me there's nothing better than spirit breaking 14 play 80 yard drives for TDs to wear on a defense and break their spirit. So far the Pack hasn't been able to sustain that type of drive very often. Until they can prove to teams they can sustain drives, good/great defenses will continue the same plan to prevent big plays.

I think MM has fallen a bit in love with the long ball. Rodgers may also be in love with it since it gives all sorts of glory in addition to scoring fast. I'd also like to see more sustained drives, a couple screens, some slants and crossing routes. The cross to Jordy has been a back-breaker on more than one occasion. That opens up the deep stuff. I'd also like to see MM take the wraps off Cobb. Let the man play!

How about giving Benson 25+ carries against teams that play the safeties 25 yards deep? And I mean between the tackles, not this zone/stretch BS.

Agree.
