Packers debacle - personnel review

Well, as I anticipated, going back and watching that game for the second time was almost as painful as the first.  What a load of crap.  Before anything else, here's the personnel chart from the game:

A couple things to note regarding the chart:

• There were a total of 22 run plays and 36 pass plays.  Much of that was due to the fact that we were behind as we had 21 runs and 22 passes through 3 quarters.
• The disparity between runs and passes out of 11 personnel continues.  It's even worse when you consider that 2 of the 9 runs out of that grouping were draw plays on 3 and 19+.  I also noticed (I don't have an exact count) that many of the plays we ran out of 11 personnel were out of the shotgun formation.  All of this adds up to a near complete lack of unpredictability for an opposing defense to worry about.

Here are the rest of my notes from the game:

The lack of desire to establish a running game early was incredibly disturbing.  This offensive line in completely incapable of protecting Jay if the opposing D-Linemen are allowed to pin their ears back and attack.  How the Bears coaching staff was unaware of this (especially after 2 years of Martz) is amazing.

Evan Rodriguez needs to play more.  Kellen Davis needs to play less.  Matt Spaeth needs to play even less than that.  He is brutal.

Cutler needs to get rid of the ball.  It's tough enough that the line can't protect, but when they DO give time, he needs to find someone or get rid of the ball.  Eliminate these negative plays.

We'll be back in the next couple days after going over the "All 22" film with more analysis.  As always, please feel free to comment below.
