[QUOTE="easyk83, post: 897127, member: 8895"] A good offensive scheme understands that all plays are basically linked and called plays might yield downstream benefits. A team that is too conservative and never challenges defenses downfield invites defenses to squat on the run and shorter routes thus weakening offensive efficiency. A team that obsesses over offensive chunk plays will invite defenses to play with strictly lighter fronts, sell out against downfield passing routes and might even ignore the underneath stuff. Against our offense towards the end of MMs tenure teams were often able to ignore the run game, spread their defensive fronts out and attack Rodgers without consequence. Rodgers, a big part of that disfunction, would ignore the run game and keep throwing often into the teeth of a defense. Consider this game from 2014 against the Bills. [URL]https://www.espn.com/nfl/boxscore?gameId=400554386[/URL] Rodgers was picked twice, went 17 of 42 in an utterly putrid performance. Meanwhile Eddie Lacy went for 97 yards on 15 carries with a ypc of 6.5. The Bills were playing us with light fronts all game long, yet Rodgers refused to lean on the run game and insisted on throwing into coverage even with the Bills practically begging us to run. Packers win that game and the NFCG would have been in GB instead of Seattle. [/QUOTE]
