Yeah McCarthy had mentioned a possibility of a 7 wr set during the preseason. I assumed that meant 3 linemen and everyone else lined up as wr. But I didn’t know you had to have 5 linemen required. So yeah it wouldn’t work. Dumb that defense only needs 1 down lineman but offense has to have all 5. I was just trying to be creative lol. But some kind of bubble screen with 5 wr wouldn’t be too bad

Maybe in the arena league this would work?

That would be an illegal formation and if anything it would make blocking worse cuz the receivers would have to play the oline and block

Just throwing some ideas out. Obviously the packers offensive line is fucking worthless so running up the middle or off the edge is out of the question. That just leaves bubble screens for short yards. If you want to bitch about protection then use 5 lineman. But Rodgers has the best release time of any qb. He could easy get the throw off before anyone got to him so why not put the two extra blockers out there. And he can always roll out as well. So yeah I’m for real. So shut the fuck up. Packers problem is they are so fucking predictable. Switch it up to fuck with the defense. I’m not saying its goons work but it’s worth a shot and it would prob make defense waste a timeout

3 linemen. And maybe the defense will be stupid enough to hit Rodgers after he throws and get a penalty call

7 wr sets huh, wheres that 7th wr coming from the oline or qb, or do we just play 12 men on the field

Go 7 wr sets every so often and throw bubble screens as running plays. Force the defense to change it up

The Packers and Saints rarely ran the ball partially because they both trailed the entire game.

The Patriots ran the ball partially because they led the entire game.

The Lions are a bad example because they were playing the Rams, who were dead last against the run last year, and nearly lost the game.

I don’t know where this myth that the Packers threw the ball deep all game comes from. To my memory, the Packers only threw the ball deep 3 times, and one of those was the final play of the game.
