MM started out well but eventually he let the offense devolve into a highlight reel run n shoot offense that tended to stall against great defenses. Rodgers was a part of that problem and only this last year committed to a more prudent and intelligent approach, one that makes defenses defend the entire field, and slow down the pass rush, instead of just stuff 20+ yards down the field.I actually think that Dillon is a better fit for what MLF wants to do long term with his offense. Force teams to spread out and play with lighter packages and then run over them with a fast 250 pound bull of a running back. In fact I think failing to try Dillon out against TB in the 1st and 2nd quarter was a factor in our loss. In limited carries he was our most effective back in two games against TB. It's a simple matchup really, those lightning fast backers are the soul of that defense. Well maybe they aren't built deal with someone who has 15 pounds of good weight on them, speed balance and cutting ability. See that play where Dillon basically carried a DB on his back for 6 yards.</blockquote>
