Good story by Paul Bretl on Packers Wire 

The touchdown pass from Jordan Love to Christian Watson during Sunday’s 23-20 win over the Los Angeles Chargers was not a play the Green Bay Packers had worked on throughout the week. In fact, it wasn’t even in the gameplan for the week.

“Very nice,” said Jordan Love post-game of the play design and execution. “That touchdown was actually a play that I think Matt (LaFleur) just kind of drew up on the sideline after seeing a look that we had previously, something that wasn’t even really in the game plan.”

On 2nd-and-9 from the Chargers’ 11-yard line with the third quarter coming to a close, Watson lined up in the slot on the right side of the formation with Dontayvion Wicks motioning to his side of the field as the ball was snapped.

On the left side, Tucker Kraft ran to the flat, while Luke Musgrave ran a curl route that drew the attention of the safety. With the safety crashing down on Musgrave, a pocket in the back left corner of the end zone opened up for Watson who was running a crossing route. With a free release for Watson’s speed, the two Chargers defenders couldn’t keep up, resulting in a relatively easy score on beautifully thrown ball by Love.



I love the in game adjustments. One of the things I find interesting is how do they call this play? The offense won't see "That particular look" until they are at the line. The helmet mike is off by then. Did they have a different play called and had told Love to switch calls if he saw the defense line up a certain way? Defenses like offenses make pre snap changes. Was it based on the sub package of players that were on the field at the time? Offenses and defense trot different groups on to the field as the play is being given to the QB.

Happy to get Watson involved. Seems like when he's not playing well you need to just feed him some easy ones to get him going. Also happy to hear the whole adjustments on the fly, means guys are getting a handle on a basic stuff+getting on the same page.

Kind of reminds me of the clip showing Greg Jennings telling the coaches on the sidelines to put anyone in the 3 and run up and out to the pylon. "They can't guard it"
Now that was was almost 12 years ago so I might not have got the quote just right, but it's the awareness of a veteran playmaker, we are starting to see this in some of the young guys as they learn .
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!
