Chemistry seems to be right in Green Bay.
Trains of thought as we head down the home stretch:
Nathaniel Hackett failed miserably as a head coach in Denver, which fired him earlier this week. But as the offensive coordinator in Green Bay, in collaboration with Matt LaFleur, he thrived. Hackett oversaw an offense that revived Aaron Rodgers’ career, to the point of winning back-to-back MVP awards. Rodgers posted some of the best numbers of his career, as the Packers reeled off thirteen wins in three consecutive seasons.
Since Hackett’s departure, the quality of Rodgers’ play has clearly declined.
