GREEN BAY – Offensive scheme at its core is a numbers game.
If they've got more somewhere, take the ball somewhere else. If we've got more over here, let's make them stop it. Or if things are even, win the one-on-ones. That sort of thing.
The Packers played that numbers game very effectively in beating the Rams in the NFC Divisional playoff. With the Rams insisting on keeping two safeties back almost all the time, the Packers emphasized where they could generate an advantage, or won the matchup when things were even at the line of scrimmage, producing a very efficient performance against the league's top defense.
Here's a sampling, followed by two bonus plays that are just too good to not see again.
Play No. 1: First-and-10 from the Green Bay 42, first quarter, 12:13 left
Result: 9-yard run by RB AJ Dillon
