[Herman] Packers clearly working on using Willis and Love in the same backfield together


“Side note. Love practiced, seemed mobile. I’m sure he’ll be limited.”

  1. Jokes aside, i dont think theres any possibility of using both at the same time, and only a really low possibility of using Willis and Love both at the same gameplan, Willis is looking very good, but theres nothing much special about him or Love to use both at the same time, if Willis could get traded for a 3rd rounder to a needy team, it would be absolutely incredible

  2. snap to love, love throws screen to Willis, Willis decides instead to throw back to love, love to willis, willis to love, Love throws 99 yard pass to Reed. Defense in shambles.

  3. Ah, you got me all excited! I know he’ll probably just stay a normal backup, but it would be fun if they found a way to use him

  4. Before the colts game I suggested we let Love sit on Willis’s shoulders. Love takes the snap to pass while Willis moves in the pocket, if there’s no one open Love hands the ball down to Willis for him to run. The ultimate quarterbacking solution

  5. do you think MLF utilizes willis when we get to 3rd/4th and goal territory? his legs would open up a lot of oppurtunities for us and ofc in such a small section of the field he’s still a threat to pass. maybe it would just be designed runs that he would be afraid to put Love in? im all for it honestly

  6. He’s going to send out Willis in a Love jersey so they don’t see the QB sneak coming.

  7. Then he fades, drops back and chucks it to our hopefully still wide-open tail back. I call it the annexation of Puerto Rico.

  8. I wish I would’ve commented but I thought it was too foolish. Someone did hear me say it last week though.

  9. I was really hoping for something like this. Willis has great tools and we should be figuring out ways to use him more even with Love back under center.

  10. Malik can be the Taysom Hill of this offense. (Ironically we actually had Taysom on our practice squad but previous coaching lacked any creativity outside of Aaron will make something happen)

  11. I have wondered what it would be like if a team ran two QBs in the same play. You’d have to shed the slot receiver (probably), but the options would be there with a QB duo like Love and Willis.

    Imagine a ball snapped to Love, he hands it off to Malik, fakes a screen to Reed, underhands the ball back to Love, who then chucks it deep to Watson. Absolute chaos, how would the defense even react?

  12. l know it’s a joke but I actually came up with an offense way back when I played HS ball that I called Mirror Formation and had our two QBs (one who was a good passer and the other that was a good runner) and had them mirror each other on each side of the ball direct snapping it to whichever one the play dictated.

    My coach turned it down real quick lol

  13. I’ve always thought dual QB backfields is the next wildcat.
    Why nit line them both up in shotgun and just have the center snap to one or the other depending on the defensive look presnap. There are so many ways to design plays outside of the box but a lot of coaches don’t want to innovate because it’s a huge risk if it falls flat, and defenses can adjust over the course of a year to cancel certain new looks out.

  14. Only the packers could have their starting QB go down only to end up with two starters upon his return- sad bears fan 🙁
