I still have no idea what MLF’s plan was with Love against KC last year. Completely unprepared for KC’s blitz heavy scheme. That was the game that made me start to wonder that MLF isn’t the answer as far as scheme/playcalling. Too many times it looks like there is literally no plan.

And apparently he can't count very well because he is constantly talking about getting Jones more touches. Is it that hard to keep track of ? I've offered to shock his nuts with a taser to remind him, but he won't take my calls

And he seems to be outcoached alot by the opponents D coordinator who will make his adjustments on MLF yet MLF cant make any adjustments toward the D

Thqt by itself is a massive headscratcher almost as big as the one he made starting turner at LT against the niners.WTF was that.You have the best tandem of running backs in the NFL n jones only gets 8 carries he should get 20 touches minimum dillon 15 every game

The OL in 2020 was uber elite. That's the difference.
People are seriously overlooking how bad the receiving group is this year.

The oline is def a massive problem. But it’s not the only one as when that passing game was really cooking, a lot of what we did was throwing short, schemed for yac. Iirc. Still requires good oline play, but its not like Rodgers needed a lot of time to throw.

Re: Bears Lead Up
Play calling/offensive scheme, QB play, OL, receivers, they are all important. Blaming any one of them, especially only the coach, is simplistic.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

But Rodgers has to be one of the toughest QBs to play call for because he doesn't always follow the reads or make the throws he's supposed to. He'll give up on a play too quickly sometimes, especially when he's skittish because of the offensive line.
What I think I see is, starting last year, the passing game/offense looks more like it did under MM. It HAS to be Rodgers.
I think year 1 under MLF there was some dysfunction/adjustment period, year 2 Rodgers bought in and the O hummed, and year 3 we saw a reversion to Rodgers’ old ways. Idk.

I thought that was pretty obvious when it reverts back to that and away from the motion we saw the year before after Rodgers made a stink about wanting a say in the gameplan

Re: Bears Lead Up
There’s so much nuance in football I have a hard time putting too much blame a single entity unless it’s become a major pattern (mm being an idiot for example)

Maybe if his name was Denise instead of Dennis.
