Often lost in the offseason haze, especially following a wallop by the San Fransisco 49ers rushing dominance over the team, was just how good the Green Bay Packers' pass defense was in 2019.

But honestly I think it's much more about the pass rush than the pass coverage, the coverage (especially King) had troubles last year, and I think all of them had some growing pains playing a lot more in zone and just getting the chemistry down,.of what to do when they faced a good trick play call meant to confuse them.

But Clark and the Smith Brothers dominant OLs at times last year, helping the pass coverage a hell of a lot.

While I think Alexander will look pretty good as long as he's healthy, I'm not as sure about the rest of the pass coverage. Though Amos is extremely solid and Savage has raw potential to possible become one of the best in the game at Safety.

But yeah, I'm sure the greedy billionaire will turn down the mega huge TV deals, turning down money is how they got into their position.

I think he has steadily improved. Year 3 and 4 is normally your biggest leap. I look forward to seeing what he can do.
