Despite taking a heartbreaking loss from the San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs, the Green Bay Packers still exceeded expectations this year. And if Jordan Fuller of the Los Angeles Rams is to be believed, next season will be better because of Jeff Hafley.
After a slow start to the Packers’ previous season, the team went on and made jaws drop. Thanks to Jordan Love’s breakout campaign, the loss of Aaron Rodgers due to a trade that sent him to the New York Jets was rarely felt by the team.
The Packers’ incredible run this season culminated in a masterful dismantling of the Dallas Cowboys in the wild-card round several weeks back. And while Green Bay’s run was halted by the 49ers, the team showed a lot of promise in the playoffs, leading to a bright future ahead.
Los Angeles Rams’ Jordan Fuller Gives Out a Glowing Review of Green Bay Packers’ Jeff Hafley
Just recently, the Packers hired Jeff Hafley to be the team’s new defensive coordinator. the Ram’ Jordan Fuller gives his take on this decision by Green Bay in an article by The Athletic:
“He’s really good at helping guys to see certain things the way he sees it and it really, really slows the game down,” Fuller said. “He’s really good at teaching guys route concepts and if you’re able to see maybe like a couple things at once right before the play, it could tell you a whole lot about what you’re expecting. I remember being with him for the first time … say you’re in man-to-man.
When you’re young in the game, you could be expecting every single route concept … but he taught me that it really didn’t have to go down like that. It was really, if you look at the sets and the formations and stuff like that, you can really rule out a whole bunch of stuff and it allows guys to play a whole lot faster,” Fuller said.
With Hafley part of head coach Matt LaFleur’s staff in the coming season, there’ll certainly be improvements, especially on the defensive end of the field. Stay tuned in the latter part of this year to see what kind of impact Hafley will bring to the table.
