I kept seeing the phrase We-fense (or Wefense) being thrown around for the Packers comments, like we should all know it. But I missed where that came in and came from so I finally looked it up... and for anyone else (like me) that missed it, here is the background.

During an interview, Packers new ST coach Rich Bisaccia said the following (see video below if you want exact quote),

We have a phase around here, Wefense, we're not offense, we're not defense, we're Wefense

This is the only place you can see a LB lined up next to a TE, next to a S with a RB making the calls. No other part of football mixing offensive and defensive guys.

So Wefense = Special Teams

Also, based in this video, you have to love his humor and attitude... though nothing surprising. Players have to get the knowledge and have to care and fight for each other.

And that he literally takes it one play at a time and pointed out that very rarely are STs perfect... every game has something to fix and that he win a Superbowl with the Buccaneers in 2002 where their ST unit had a pint blocked and returned for a TD.

I like the mentality of Wefense, but I am not going to go full corny on it and buy t-shirts and etc. I am sure someone has already tried to make a buck off this. Like Hackett's corny "Gold Zone." Hackett was in charge of the red zone offense and the Packers were not that great down there the last couple years. I'm glad Hackett is gone. I think he got the Denver job because of LaFleur's success, and is in over his head.

Bisaccia can't be worse than Mo Drayton, so he can calls his units whatever he wants. Just get results and I will be pleased.

never heard of it. Thanks beast.

So, basically he is saying Special Teams aren't why Packers lost vs 49ers. He's saying offense and defense should have overcame the Special Teams. This guy has excuses already before his first game! Hahha, joking.
