It is true that I did not understand about HC LaFleur's offensive philosophy, but then I found the ESPN article that explained it to me.

So in one article, you went from trying to correct me that we know nothing about the system, to correcting me that your an expert on the system?

So how can one say just what players GB's offense should pursue without knowing about how it will operate.

Because it's almost the offseason... and we got nothing else to do, and you're criticizing it for some strange reason...

Also just because you don't know something, doesn't mean that's true for others... I don't think any of fully understand this new system, but there are certain aspects that some of us are fairly certain on.

My newly acquired understanding of GB's new offensive sys. has allowed me to feel confident about this.

Also the last time you were confidently trying to explain scheme to me... was that DL Clark doesn't belong at NT and DL Ringo should be the starting NT (which you got pretty pissed for telling you, that it's backwards)... so confident means nothing if the statements aren't correct.

Beast, we don't respond when we're challenged around here, we just ignore it or leave and hope it goes away/pretend it didn't happen. And by we I mean...

Then he became an expert, talking down to me about how he completely understands the system... and that just made me wonder, how the heck he went from one extreme to the other...

And I'm still in a bit of shock that he seemed to suggest he feels he confident learn an entire system from one article that only covers two plays... that's just unbelievable!

A good read here

http://www.espn.com/blog/green-bay-packers/post/_/id/46728/lafleur-hackett-plan-run-the-ball-then-let-aaron-rodgers-go-play

I like it. We all know Aaron is one of the best, and with a solid running game I believe it will make him just that much better, and even more dangerous.

"Certainly I want to be in that quarterback room as much as possible and the goal is to be there all the time," LaFleur said on ESPN Milwaukee. "I realize as the head coach there's going to be things that come up that you have to take care of, but I entrust that [Hackett] and I have the same vision for the quarterback and we'll be on the same page."

This quote concerns me a bit. I know Sean McVay has had a great deal of success as quarterback whisperer in St. Louis, but Aaron Rodgers isn't twenty-three years old. I want a head coach who is overseeing the whole team and who trusts his assistants enough not to micromanage. If LaFleur is spending all his time in the quarterback room, how can we be confident the rest of the team is getting due attention? To put it another way, if what LaFleur really wants is to be an offensive coordinator, why take the head-coaching gig?

And I'm not completely sure, but I think 6 of the final 8 teams, and 8 of the playoffs 12 teams. Of the four that don't, two are the oldest NFL head coaches (and they're from defense, Patriots and Seahawks), while the Ravens head coach is from ST and Chargers have the only offensive coach that has the OC call the plays.

Edit: Looks like I'm mistake, Jason Garrett is no longer calling plays for the Cowboys. Of course they just fired their play caller too. And Jerry Jones is telling the public he's got to give Garrett an extension because he'd be in such high demand as a FA, despite PFT pointing out the last time he was, there was no publicly known rumors of demand.

This is all about supply and demand

Talented OC have so low supply, but such high demand that teams try to protect them from being stolen by other teams, only way to do that is make them the head coach.

This is the way the modern NFL is currently going

I want a head coach who is overseeing the whole team and who trusts his assistants enough not to micromanage. If LaFleur is spending all his time in the quarterback room, how can we be confident the rest of the team is getting due attention?

And how can be confident the rest of the team is getting due attention in the old system? Under Mike McCarthy and Sherman, fans complained about the defense a whole lot.... of course they called plays. But fans complained about the Seahawks offense, and there are calls the Chargers should fire their offensive play caller... so there is no way to be confident other than blind trust and based off results (which currently we have none).
