Packers: Film reveals team must improve screen, read-option

Related Topics: Option offense, Brett Hundley

Packers head coach Mike McCarthy called several (unsuccessful) deep shots for Hundley during the game, but the intermediate passing game was virtually nonexistent. Hundley was unable to connect nearly enough with Jordy Nelson and Davante Adams in the 10-to-20-yard range.

This doesn’t mean that Hundley is bad or that the Packers season is over.

After a bye week, the Packers’ offense will hopefully look much different than it did in Week 7.

But even if the traditional passing game continues to sputter, there are two play types that the Packers must improve upon to give their offense a jolt: screen plays and read-options.
