The defense always seems to have the early edge every camp.  So that's not shocking.  If the trend continues after the next couple of weeks, then sound the alarm bells.  Reich even said yesterday that the offense is still doing installs.  I'll wait to see how the offense looks once the entire playbook has been implemented before getting too concerned.

This--offense has way more newbies to school.  More about timing and chemistry--imo

The D is almost alllllways ahead of the the O on every team starting TC. 

O has much more moves and timing. Some on D - "you have zone 3" same as the last 5 years....

Oh yeah I’m not worried per se. I think I’d have to see the offense struggle in a real game that counts to get concerned.

Hopefully we get some good reports when the Jets roll into town.

these threads used to be hundreds of pages long 

I’m just ready for the season already. Been a hell of a offseason and I really don’t care how camp goes. It’s for building chemistry and working out the kinks.

So it begins we get to see our new franchise QB against another teams defense. I’m assuming they’ll play their first team some also being they didn’t play in the HOF game. Rodgers and Co will have to get done meaningful reps before the season starts even though there’s no real game plan it’s going to be good to compete vs another team with elite pieces at multiple key positions.

Might as well accept there will be many ups and downs with a rookie QB and a new staff. I’d expect the offense to look better in the second half of the season. 

Yep exactly, we are in a great division to play our best ball in the second half. Just gotta win the first two and play the rest of the games up until december by ear.

    • Many of those posters are still around. The ones who compared him to hall of famers in this and other sports. They're just biding their time waiting to see if Bryce will suddenly turn into a great QB. I think the way you frame it indicates the problem. It's either on one side people who as you put it "don't like him" (in most instances impossible to truly know on an anonymous chat board) or people who need to see him with stacked talent to form a conclusion after hyping up as a one man show a year ago. You say there are discussions to be had but if it involves anything remotely on the side of negative instead of the "everything is awesome" end of the spectrum it is met with talk of what some are now describing as a pathological need to be critical of him. As if the rest of the sports world doesn't have these same blunt discussions whenever he is mentioned. If there were truly other more notable discussions to be had right now that haven't also been discussed endlessly we would be having them. We just had yet another uniform thread. Instead the top 2 threads dominating the front page for the last 24 hours since the first blueprint episodes dropped have revolved around the starting QB. That's just the modern NFL. Some people want to shoot the messenger over that because they don't like the banter that follows 🤷‍♂️
    • #1 thing you need for any rookie QB (as far as personnel goes) is the OL. Second thing you need is a run game that takes the pressure off the rookie and allows him a chance to grow. run games are just easier to manage for someone still learning the ropes. third thing you need is reliable bail out option receivers who can 1) get open and/or 2) just catch the ball. last year we had none of that in place. this year i think we've gotten together everything that he should have had last year. 
    • Seriously? That's 34 air yards at best. I have yet to meet a Bryce defender who doesn't have laughably low standards by which they judge QB play.
