Aaron Rodgers is counting on the grass being greener. An all-conquering Gotham green, to be precise, as he fronts the New York Jets' Super Bowl dream.
Green Bay to Gang Green became the story of the NFL offseason. And so too the tipping point of a prolonged nudge towards separation, set in motion three years ago when the Packers drafted their Hall of Fame quarterback's successor.Rodgers isolated himself in a darkness retreat and spent four days without light or contact to the outside world while mulling over his future earlier this year. He determined his hopes of clinching a second ring lied elsewhere.
LaFleur's approach derives from the Shanahan coaching tree, utilising zone blocking alongside pre-snap motion and play-action from under center in order to sell identical looks for both the run and pass with a view to keeping defenses in limbo. It was an approach that flourished during Rodgers' back-to-back MVP years, which saw him line up under center at a 10th-highest rate of 40.5 per cent while compiling a touchdown-to-interception ratio of 85-9 and a passer rating of 116.
