Packers 2026/27 Season Thread



We won't know until the season starts but notable that Hafley played very little dime - maybe due to lack of quality personnel - but Gannon (AZ) and Babich (Buff) both played quite a bit, and Gannon also played more base formation. Hafley just sort of lived in nickel. Secondary is going to look different.

hafley wasn't the only one living in nickel. the falcons, ravens, cowboys, bears, texans, colts, patriots, eagles, 49ers, seahawks and titans all played a higher % of nickel than the packers. what was really interesting to me was how very little base was played by raven, bears and especially the seahawks.

Mike McDonald just stayed in it and didn't even try to match against an offense. Worked for them.
 
I'm not as studious or as concerned about the scheme as you guys.

What's important is our defense knows their assignments. They do what they're supposed to do. And they frickin' tackle - without needing the gang to show up.

It's not that complicated a game. Block the guy in the wrong jersey on offense so the pretty boys can score. On defense tackle and smack the guys in the wrong jersey.

Way too often - throughout this coaching tenure and then to be fair in previous ones - the Packers blame shit on missed assignments - and not in the first game. Late in the season. Like the Frickin' Bears games last year.

I really don't care what the scheme is. Just frickin' do it. And, at it's simplest, if they aren't in Green and Gold hit them
