How many times have we seen an opponent who is losing on score but you can just tell it won’t be for long? That’s because they understand how momentum is key.Many don’t know that Josh Jacobs yards in the passing game have diminished every year since 2022.The only year Josh has less Targets than in GB is his Rookie season 2019. All this early hype from our staff about getting him more involved amounted to taking targets away. Here’s a guy who since 2024 has averaged 8.7 yards per catch and last year got a 1st down on 42% of his targets, but his usage is waning?That’s not on Josh either. If I picked 3 Packers that were ideal to target in space, I’d put Kraft and Jacobs at the foremost on that list. Unfortunate Lloyd was also that guy in college but he can’t stay upright. There’s a substantial opportunity to use our RB’s more in the short Passing game. I’m not talking dangerous backwards laterals that allow our opponent to swarm for a TFL and steal momentum.  I’m talking taking advantage of a player (Josh) who averages an 83% catch rate at 9 per. That’s not a guy7.3 NET per target in Pass game.</blockquote>
