There was a playoff game with the 49ers, when we still had Rodgers. I swear SF could have won that game without even throwing a single pass.

Gonna keep saying it.....because it's true!
Lafluer is not an NFL head coach.... he is a below avg Offensive Cood!
Packers are never ready to plat!
Few if any in game adjustments.
Below avg offense!
Dude is ULRRA soft!
Been there 6 yrs.....still bottom run defense!

Pack won't win a Championship with him!!!

I can't agree with this take at all.

Looking at his previous posts, only take he has.

I understand your view but I cant be to ******* MLF because he is trying to do to many things at once. I always felt GB would be better off with MLF at the helm while somene else calls the plays. Instead MLF has no time to oversee, to manage the game strategy because he has to call plays every 30 sec. Theres no time to think clearly under tbose conditions.

Respectfully, I can't agree with this either. Andy Reid has been calling his own plays for like 25 years. Zac Taylor calls his and he's been to a Super Bowl. I mean, there's a bunch of coaches that call the offensive plays. This is not out of the norm. O'Connell at MN. Payton in Denver. McVay for the Rams. The list is pretty extensive. This has not stopped them from being successful. We will just have to disagree on this one.

Not quite the same as now.

I hear you and I'm sure there are a number of coaches who have the ability to call the OF plays. My point was that I dont believe MLF is one of them. His decision making is lacking at critical times. A good example is the 49rs game...with little time left before half and us up 17-10 the right strategy was to make your way down field and get a FG to make it a 2 score game. Instead he has Loxe throwing these long low percentage bombs. Granted if watson makes that catch we get a TD but it didnt happen so we threw away a chance to put points on the board. With SF getting the ball to start the 2nd half you have to do the smart thing and get those points while you can. As I said MLF seems to lose focus at critical times.

And with a team in Minnesota, Illinois, and Michigan you might think it may have come there years ago. Now they are in Florida, Utah, and Washington state.

IIRC, I think there was something about the Blackhawks being able to block an NHL team within a certain radius of Chicago, of which MKE falls into.

Think things like below show how good of a coach he is. However, we can disagree. I'm fine with that. I just think the Pack are in a good spot with their head coach. Not to mention winning three games with Milik Willis as your QB.

Very good to see the penalties go down. That holding on Jenkins was absurd. What in the world was he thinking?

Nice post, thanks.

Always fun to see plays dissected. To the average eye, these are quickly viewed by most fans as "2 rushing plays that worked". But why did they work? How did they work? This is the offensive scheming and planning that we don't see behind the scenes.

2 observations.

- Both run plays were well designed, disguised and executed.

- MLF definitely has a great offensive mind and helps draw these up. My only concern with MLF and any HC for that matter, do they have time to head coach and be the OC on the field? Sometimes I feel like MLF is juggling too many plates and it can hinder getting a play call in on time. Now maybe he is getting suggestions from his other coaches in the box and he is just the final approval, but it seems like it would be more efficient to have a group of coaches concentrating 100% on the offense and 1 of them making the call down to Love.

Sorry but I feel the GB train would run much smoother with MLF managing the game and someone else calling plays.
Designing plays sitting in an office on a tuesday afternoon is way different than actually calling plays in an active game with the speed that it requires. You are basically standing in tbe middle of the forest. Thats all you can see. Certainlly its an important part of any game but We also need someone outside the forest who can focus on thinking ahead. Thinking about possible upcoming situations and how we should react. I call that part managing the game, but theres no time for that if you want to be the play caller.

Why does it have to be either or? I understand continuity but I could see LaFleur calling a series when he wants. Or even a set of downs. It would mix things up a bit too.

it may sound like IM blasting MLF and that would be true if I said he’s terrible has has to go but IM not saying that at all. What I am saying is he trying to do to many things, wear to many hats, and that causes him to make some bad decisions at critcal times in a game. A few nessages back I outlined one such example from the 49rs game. Its not the only example.
