[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 854695"] And the way they have done that is in three consistent ways: red zone offense, red zone defense and + on turnovers. I've been hammering on this for weeks and it seems eyes glass over. There may be a 4th. factor in the making. Over the last two games the Packers are 5-6 on 4th.down, 6-9 over the last three games, after being dismal for most of the season. They were the last team to convert their first 4th. down this season. Converting a 4th. down is roughly equivalent to a + turnover, obviously no small thing. Rodgers is top 5 in just about every red zone passing category, including first in TDs and yards. The 60+% completion rate in the short field is quite good: [URL]https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2019/redzone-passing.htm[/URL] Compare to last season's stats. Same ol' not great Rodgers? I think not. Not directed at you, but I'm reading a bunch of cr*p about LaFleur's offense being a same old, same old McCarthy redux. I don't know if people are not paying attention, don't understand the plausible latitude available (with this team or in general in the league), or are once again engaging in confirmation bias (not enough points must mean same old, same old), or if it's a case of too much beer or a case of beer, but this is a weird game to make those kinds of observations: 28 throws, 18 to backs and TEs, only 10 WR targets. That may be a Rodgers record ratio. Backs getting 29 touches + 3 incomplete targets = 32 plays. If we drop out the last two kneel down plays, the Packers ran 54 plays excluding the sacks (we don't know who those plays were supposed to be run through), 59% went through the backs. That may be another record ratio. [/QUOTE]
