“I think everybody needs to understand this is going to be the first iteration of our offense, and because it’s a new scheme and there are new pieces, this is going to grow from this point,” Rodgers said Sunday. “I’m excited about the stuff we have in and the stuff we’ve been working on in camp. There’s going to be even more. I think that’s the exciting part. I like the foundational start for this offense. I think it could be tough to stop because of the stress it puts on defense with their eye control and pattern-reading and reading the alignments. But we have a lot of room to grow from what we put on the field on Thursday.”

That follows what general manager Brian Gutekunst said earlier this summer — that it might take half the year to know what they have on offense.

And what LaFleur said on Sunday.

“I’ll have a better answer for you here in a couple weeks about where I think we are,” LaFleur said.

Rodgers added: 

“We’re throwing new things at them with personnel groupings and motions and alignments and movement and adjustments that they haven’t seen from us. So I’m excited for the opportunity. I’m obviously really hopeful that we’re going to go out and play really well, but I do really feel like this is just the beginning for this offense and there will be a lot of room to grow regardless of our performance on Thursday. Which, for myself and our squad, I expect us to play really well. But I think there’s going to be a lot of room for growth within the scheme as we go on in the season.”

With a new coach trying to control what Rodgers does on the field, you really don’t know what to expect. 

Should be fun to watch. . .
