LeFleur's Offense · PACKERSHOME

I've been thinking about the offensive system that LeFleur and his staff will implement, and I can't help but believe we will see more two back sets. Looking at his background he likes to utilize a RB, if not both, as an extra receiver(s). Add more zone blocking with a guy like Jones, and I really think we will see more options in the passing game from the running backs.

A solid first contribution for a rookie. Welcome to the boards! How do you feel about the hiring of LeFleur overall?

Good posts AK. I look forward to using the RB more.

Regarding the RB's Derrick Henry and Corey Davis both consistently improved under LeFluer. When things got bad for Tennessee those guys showed up and put up stats. This is a big area I will be looking for improvement in from the Packers.

That said, we can legitimately spend a high pick on the RB position now, because we have a coach that will actually use that player.

Please don't be surprised if the members don't always agree or get along civilly, it happens. For the most part I believe you'll find, as I have, that posters just want to express their views and not rip into others for their views. I will say that you'll be challenged if your facts are wrong or for personal attacks (which rarely ever occur). I like to learn from members post and sometimes I too can add to the collective level of uplifting facts.

I don't fully understand the new offensive system that LaFleur will be bringing to the Packers. How is it different from other offenses like the "West Coast" or others. Does it have a name/label yet? How will this system mesh with GB's veteran personal? Will it require starting personal changes to implement it? What is the philosophy of this new offensive system?

If nothing else, I look forward to learning about all this and more moving forward. I hope that you and others will educate the rest of us.

I think we should use a fake name for the offense so the opposing defense doesn't know what we are doing.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

If I read the stat right James White tied a playoff record with 15 receptions in the Patriots win yesterday. Alvin Kamara is often used more as a pass catcher than a runner. I'm not saying Jones needs 20 carries a game but he should be getting 20 touches at least. This is Aaron Rodgers' team and Aaron has been one of the best QBs to ever play the game. To suggest that they convert to a run first offense is silly with a man like that taking snaps. However, to not utilize every weapon and every opportunity for him to make his passes passes is equally silly.

Of course LaFleur will have to convince Rodgers to buy into it.

Just kidding one that, I'm not advocating going after Bell.

As far as drafting A RB high I am always for that if, like you said, we have an offensive game plan that will use them to the best of their abilities. I'm not sure what the draft is like for RBs but I doubt they would go for one in rounds 1 or 2 unless LaFleur simply doesn't like Jones but I'm not sure why he wouldn't.

wpr (11h) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
