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.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
