Tell me about it!

Incidentally, the entire thread  is well worth reading.

DrNSD observed: An Absolutely fantastic observation. When you get plays in quickly, then you can run motion. When you run motion you can more easily determine if the defense is in a zone or man to man, making your pre-snap reads much easier for both receiver and quarterback.

additional observations on the relationship:
[list=1]

“Let’s go win it” is LaFleur telling 12, “ I believe in you, and I know we can get this done.“

it’s further says, “I expect you, and will call on you, to win games when it counts and not rely on the defense.”[*] by using the “we“, he is saying “I have your back.“[/list]I think it has been important for them to have success early and to rely and believe in each other. Davonte Adams’ injury will be a blessing in disguise as 12 had to rely more on the offensive design. We should be getting him back at a perfect time (post bye)

Hopefully, they have built up enough Goodwill and trust that when the bad times happen in the offense struggles they will work things out together. The back half of the schedule is brutal and will be very challenging for the team and their relationship.

I could not agree more, and I have mentioned this a few times myself. In past years, we've seen Rodgers' performance improve when he lost his favorite targets (e.g., Jordy Nelson), only to dip again when they returned and he started trying to force the ball to them in favor of trusting the scheme. Each time, McCarthy acquiesced to Rodgers' unfortunate tendency to rely too much on the receivers he trusts. Hopefully, LaFleur won't let Rodgers get by with this, and the return of Adams will simply augment an already explosive offense.

A man can hope!
