1-5-5 alignment that debuted today.

One word: Awesome.

Name just makes it Awesome-er. :D

The way it confused the Bears makes it Awesome-est. It was great to see the Bears struggle with protection when we ran that.


Seriously though, made sense to have a package with only one DL, since most of the big dudes were injured this week. Gotta love Capers creativity.

Is that what that was? I thought it looked funny. At first it looked they failed to get the right personnel on the field and would need to take a time-out. Then the LB's started shifting around just before the snap, and it worked! Very nice. The new wrinkles just keep coming. And I love how the defense is shutting teams down late. This is the difference between the '08 Packers and the '09 Packers.

I loved it. It's a shame that this had to be implemented out of necessity, instead of just adding it to the playbook, though.

The confusion was great and the pass rushing abilities even better. When you get that much LBs and Jenkins as the only D-lineman in, you can get some serious pressure.

Seriously, do you think Bob Sanders would even dream of this type of scheming against anyone? I'm so glad we got Capers.

Capers too a weakness, an injury depleted DL, and turned it into a strength. He used creativity to throw a freaky new alignment out there that actually confused Cutler and the Bares O into calling timeout and making mistakes.
IF ONLY the offense could play as consistently and solidly as the defense, we WOULD be Superbowl champs.

We were pretty much forced into that type of defense today with all the injuries to our D-Line. During and before the game they were pretty much all banged up. The only person who was reliable and played the whole game was Jenkins, the unsung hero of our defense in my opinion.

I wish I could take credit, but that is the actual name of the package in Capers schem.

Capers gets some major style points for naming it that.

With as many beastly or above average LBs as we have, I'd be fine running a 2-5-4 on passing downs. Raji - Jolly up front, Matthews, Barnett, Chillar, Poppinga, Jones behind them... Maybe Woodson/Williams/Collins at CB and Bigby at safety? Didn't Collins play CB in the past?. Think of all the exotic blitzes you could run from that...
