[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 1001142"] I would be fine with Jones and Dillon combining for the same amount of yards from scrimmage as last season. If they truly can improve on that number I will be impressed. Unfortunately I don't believe it's as easy as you want to make us believe. I don't think that's the plan opposing defenses will use anyway. Jones and Dillon faced 8+ defenders in the box on one of the lowest percentages in the league last season because teams respected the Packers' passing game because of Rodgers. Dillon ranked 37th among 48 running backs with at least 90 carries in the area at 16.13%, Jones 46th at 10.80%. That will definitely change early this season as long as Love doesn't make them pay for it. Here are the numbers for Love rushing the ball during his college career at Utah State: 2017: 33 attempts for 214 yards, 6.48 yards per carry, 52nd out of 101 quarterbacks with the most attempts 2018: 34 attempts for 110 yards, 3.24 yards per carry, 101st out of 104 QBs 2019: 42 attempts for 266 yards, 6.33 yards per carry, 62nd out of 106 QBs Too bad you will never read that information :roflmao: Unfortunately Love won't face prevent defenses all the time while being the starter. While I agree there's no reason to put too much stock into his performance against the Chiefs I advocate to do the same on the nine passes he threw against the Eagles. It was a typo, Rodgers rushed for 356 yards in 2010. [/QUOTE]
