Well, that is probably true.
But does that really take away from what has been accomplished by MLF the last 2 seasons?
And do you not see the difference the plays that MLF has put into the Packers offense, that has changed the way the offense performs?
That has made a HUGE difference in how incredible the offense has been this season.
It’s night and day from Mike McCarthys offensive plays.
Without MLFs new offense, we’d probaby end up 8-8 at the best, even with Rodgers.
Take away Mahomes from KC, or any superstar player from any team, and the teams wouldn’t be as good as they are with said stars.

Should that take away from what the head coach has added to the team?
Being such a young coach, and getting the team to perform at such a high level is amazing in my opinion.

Although I believe many us undervalue and over blame Rodgers, he was here during Mike McCarthy last few years and the team was far worse (and no, he didn't 'tank' it)

MLF as clearly made a difference.

Whether he is COTY or not I am glad he is our coach.

I think it's the system and Rodgers combination. As Rodgers is the best QB to ever play in this system, only one that you might be able to argue is John Elway.

Just in recent years this scheme has taken old broken Peyton Manning, Matt Ryan, Jared Goff and Jimmy Garoppolo to the Super Bowl. (yes you can argue Manning is up there with Rodgers but not during the one injured year in this system, which was his last year in the NFL).


Teams that use this system and their ranking in yards per game

Packers #2 in the NFL in offensive yards per game
Vikings #3
Titans #4
Rams #6

49ers #14 (lots of injuries including starting QB, though their backup QB is on pace for 2nd-most passing yards ever through 16 starts )
Browns #16 (#2 in running the ball and 9-3 record)

Jaguars #23 (kinda surprised they're not further down on this list, as their record sucks and they were thought to be the worst team in the NFL before the season, and had at least 3 different starting QBs)

Bengals #27, had the #1 pick in the NFL last year for a reason, and starting QB got injured.


So 8 teams (25% of the NFL) now use this offense

Of the 5 that have been able to keep their starting QB healthy.... 4 of those 5 (80%) are currently in the top 6 in offensive in yards per game

Or half of the teams that use this scheme are currently in the top top 6 teams in offensive yards per game.

The only thing MLF has against him for winning COTY is Aaron Rodgers. Critics will say he is riding the tail coat of a HoF QB. What they dont know is MLF is scheming guys open in this offense and making Rodgers a step better then years past.

I think he should’ve won it last year. Look at the record difference from McCarthy to LaFleur....
