Seems since we lost Luke Musgrave the offense has been clicking more efficiently. Are we better with Tucker Kraft on offense?

I don't think Kraft is much of a factor other than being used in Wide Zone gimmicks and blocking which maybe LaFleaur's play calling is back to more standard stuff now that he doesn't have a speed TE.

But I think it's the OL getting healthy and passing game having extra meetings outside of the coaches and getting everyone on the same page

Musgrave is better than Kraft. The end.

Beast I am conflicted with your duo narrative. I need someone to take the middle ground and make your legacy complete.

I hope Musgrave comes back soon. If he can figure out how to keep his balance I think he's gonna be one helluva threat!

Gonna agree wholeheartedly with what beast said. It's the off the field prep showing up. One of the bigger Packer Twittersphere commentators after the game pointed out that guys are just no longer running routes from the playbook but adjusting and attacking coverage based on what they're seeing presnap.

As nice as Kraft has been playing recently, he doesnt create as many mismatches as Musgrave can thanks to his size and speed. Just need to stop using Musgrave in Trips (Musgrave gets a catch and trips).

It's "Everything is Better with Cheddar", not Kraft... but Cheddar, I know.Kraft is trying to replace the word Cheese with Kraft as a Branding deal, but we need to always remember Cheddar is better!

Hopefully this post isn't too cheesy 🧀

Musgrave is the better receiving threat between he and Kraft. We all agree with that, yes? So maybe they are game planning to utilize other facets of the offense and that has contributed to the (likely coincidence) improved efficiency? Rather than say 20% of plays leveraging Musgrave, now it's more like 5% for Kraft? 🤷

My answer would still be no. I think what's happening is that Kraft is doing all the nuts & bolts/dirty work stuff that DeGuara was supposed to be doing (and failing) like backside blocking, chip blocking, safety valve dump offs etc.

    Zero2Cool (8m) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (12m) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (14m) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
    dfosterf (14m) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

    dfosterf (18m) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
    dfosterf (19m) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
    Zero2Cool (49m) : That someone ... likely the agent.
    Zero2Cool (49m) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
    Zero2Cool (49m) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
    Zero2Cool (1h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
    dfosterf (2h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
    Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
    dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
    Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

    Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
    Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
    Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
    Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh
    Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.
    Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?
