The Packers defense is awesome...except for one thing

TL;DW...Mike Pettine's very clear tendencies to call certain coverages in certain situations, combined with the Packers' extremely low blitz percentage and lack of subtlety in their disguises, means the Packers have shown themselves to be incredibly vulnerable to quarterbacks that know what the hell they are doing at the line of scrimmage.
Green Bay got the shit kicked out of them last time against the Niners, but some of the few times they actually DID have success, it was when they stopped playing so blandly and dialed up some blitzes. If Mike Pettine does more of that, they'll be fine. If he resorts back to conservatism, they're probably screwed.
Hope you enjoy the show!

I agree, it needs to be discussed but I don't know if it belongs in preseason or start of next season after there are more examples, no one wants to see the second broncos video ever have nothing but film of other teams.
Hey Brett, how much do you think cte is a talking point between nfl players? Because I think Luke Kuechly adressed it pretty clearly in his retirement video, without directly saying it (e.g. still wanting to play but not being able to do it the way he wishes it).

Great video. Interested to hear your opinion on the Broncos change at offensive coordinator?
Great video. Matt Lafleur talked in his press conference yesterday about putting a lot of focus on the first matchup against the 49ers. Hopefully the Pettine makes the adjustments you're talking about. -- Did you have a chance to watch the Seahawks divisional round game? I know they didn't blitz much, but they also didn't give up a lot of rhythm throws either. Wilson mostly moved the ball by holding the ball, buying time, and finding a receiver uncovered in short or medium areas. -- Did the Packers change up their coverages at all to prevent the open deep throws you were anticipating?
