The Passing Chronicles: 2019 Week 8

Another week, another win and yet more things to love about the passing game.

It's no secret that the Packers have been prominently featuring running backs in the passing game. In this game, running backs accounted for 35.5% of passing targets, 56.7% of passing yardage and 100% of passing touchdowns. I wanted to kick this off by looking at 4 plays that worked off of a similar concept and how using it early in the game set up a couple huge plays later.

Play 1: 3rd & 3, 13:38 remaining in the 1st quarter, Packers tied 0-0

We've got a little drag/wheel action to the right, with Aaron Jones [33] on the wheel and Jimmy Graham [80] on the drag.
