[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 994404, member: 4199"] I don't so much think the league figured out what they were doing so much as time moved on. 2011 had Cobb as our 5th WR, iirc. (Jennings, Driver, Jones, Nelson, and then Finley) that roster was just stacked. Players got old and moved on. Once we were no longer so stacked at pass catcher, the lack of a running game hurt us. It was basically the reverse of 2022. Consider: [I]Teams would sit in a 2-deep shell, pin their ears back, and rush Rodgers. The line wasn't quite good enough to pass block the whole game and we didn't run well. There was no real downside to not playing Cover-2/Man-2.[/I] VS. [I]Teams would site in a heavy box for most of the game. Clog the rushing lanes and the line wasn't quite good enough to win when the numbers weren't in their favor. And we couldn't win over the top. There was no real downside to not playing Cover-1/Cover-3.[/I] Defenses can take away whatever they want, it's just a question what they are allowing in trade. If you cannot exploit what they are allowing, you're going to suffer. [/QUOTE]
