As the one and only Johnny Barks said on Twitter "Jeff Hafley was such a good DC at Ohio State he helped the Lions waste a top pick on Jeff Okudah lol."
Jeff playing the long con.
Jeffs help Jeffs plain and simple
Johnny Who?
Sounds like a Packer already
Still hurts man
Jeff will use Jeff powers to lead the Green Bay Jeff’s to the Jeff Bowl
Hmm. You're cooking the house down with this one. 🔥 🚒
JEFF POWER
LET HIM COOK.
Cooking with dynamite with this Jeff line lol
Jeff
Whelmed.
Not overwhelmed. Not underwhelmed. Just whelmed.
I think this is a great hire. He runs press coverage and has turned sub par defenses into great units in the NFL and College.
i understood that reference
Lmfao this is the best response I’ve seen so far 😂😂😂
One thing that I think needs to be mentioned is Hafley's love for press coverage, I will no longer have to watch our DBs line up 10 yards off on 3rd and short. I count that as a win.
No more Preston Smith guarding Justin Jefferson i hope
Amen to that! It was maddening to watch.
@@MomopeWasTakenand Preston guard Davante.
As a Ohio fan Jeff Hafley defense was freakin amazing, we were ranked #1 in defense, he also has experience in nfl with bucs, but of most important he love press coverage. important to note he's a db coach which is our weakest part of our defense so that even better.
I'm not saying this hire was good, but i'm saying the upside to this hire is up the roof. Go Pack Go!!!
We’ve wasting good DB talent with Barry. Will be nice to see 23 and 37 playing hard nosed football.
Michigan had the top ranked defense in 2023. Still in possession of your teams' ass too, you know.....
@@AaronMQuantz Way to be a dick for no reason other than pure pettiness.
@@hankthetank8039He’s a Michigan fan. They’re all a bunch of douchebags
@@hankthetank8039 facts are facts, nothing dickish about my correction statement either
Jeff Hafley tricked the NFL into drafting Chase Young, Jeff Okudah, and Damon Arnette in the 1st. Proves he can mask player faults
Is Chase Young really that bad, though? I thought he was just injury prone.
@@matthewcrispin4070 he’s been bad for a 2nd overall pick. He’s lazy and takes plays off
@@Badger_SmacksYeah idk if it was just me but I saw on one of the Lions plays, it didn’t seem like he tried to tackle
That's actually good then. That means he can take a subpar defense and make them look and perform great.
Then you got the right guy eh? rofl
At least it’s not Joe Barry.
Yeah, he was a pain
This tis what I am stating, homie
@@kevinuchiha6830 tell me about it
As long as he isn't passive having his CBs 10 yds off the ball on 3rd and short fans are gonna be fine with the hire.. for now..
From the graphic at 1:13: "How Jeff Hafley's emphasis on tackling has vastly improved Ohio State's defense"
I know nothing about Hafley, but that alone would be a *HUGE* improvement to Barry's outfit.
“Fire Hafley” is already trending on X 😅
Tf is Hafley?
@@kevinuchiha6830do you not know even the title of the video you just clicked on?😭
@@kingkermit0118oi. I now know lol. I typed this before he explained it
Feel bad for him, green bays fan base is tough and impatient as hell
What's X?
This feels like a low risk high reward hire. The one thing that I saw that gets my hopes up for it is a tweet about his philosophy with coverages, one of which is that he likes to use press coverages, which immediately separates him from Barry.
"I don't even know who you are."
- Thanos and Tom Grossi
Jeff Hafley looks like a Green Bay Packers kind of guy. If Gutey hits another 2024 draft of solid defensive players like he did choosing offensive receivers in the superb 2023 draft, then I think this GB defense is going to rock. If so this Packers team could be going to the Super Bowl next season. GPG!!
OSU alumni and giant fan, he was very good at OSU. When he left the defense went down hill and we are just now getting it back.
I think Perna said it in a GPS episode, but the kind of guy you really want is a young, creative mind who is able to shock the system and establish themselves as a new name in the NFL. Finding a guy like that does mean taking a risk though, so we will see if it pays off. Here's hoping Jeff Hafley is that kind of guy.
That’s my first thought too tbh. We’ve had way too many old plugs that have the fabled NFL experience and fail due to a lack of adaptability. I have hope but cautiously.
Ohio state diehard here. I’ve been bitching about our defense since the day he left. I think y’all got good one who WILL make halftime adjustments. Hope all is well with ya Tom.
You got a good one I think. He was a mastermind at OSU
Why has it taken me so long to realize that the PC fan colors change between green and gold… I love it 💚💛
Let's give him a chance before judging it could be a amazing thing or a bad thing but like everyone judged Love he did great during his start
Agreed. You do want to have some reasons for choosing him--random selections are bad risks. The Paul Farrington Show does a good discussion, and those Viking fans are concerned.
I trust MLF’s judgement on the matter until I have reason otherwise.
His resume looks solid.
Shluld get rid of the defensive line coach/run game coordinator Jerry Montgomery. The guy has been there since 2015, and it's been years since this team had a good run defense.
Great hire.....just listened to the Farrington break down and im sold
Yeah, they have a pretty good discussion ont he Paul Farrington Show. I think Hafley does have potential.
Fellow Packer fans need to chill. Waaay too early to have concern (which happens to be the easy thing to do). Fans are not coaches.. far from it. He has an aggressive defensive approach. I trust the hire.
Great advice. We'll just have to wait and see how he does. GoPackGo 💚💛💚💛💚💛💚💛💯
This is like Bill taking a division 2 safety high round two.
No....... how do u think we get new coaches in the league. They normally start in college, eventually get some nfl experience as a positions coach, then get a DC job if they do good. Could he be bad? Yes. But this is how u find the next big coach
@beastmode_bumblebee that joke really went far over your head huh.
The last time that happened was Kyle Dugger. That one worked out pretty well
I’m done questioning gutey and lafluer. I believe this will work out great. Did some research on this guy and I love his aggressiveness.
We knew what the ceiling was with Berry. Let's find a new ceiling and give the guy a chance.
He was a very, very good assistant for us in Tampa Bay. Helped light the spark in Aqib Talib and helped that last season resurgence of Ronde Barber. I wouldn't be surprised to see an uptick in picks for you guys, which will be a pretty big net gain.
If he is just at bare minimum a competent average DC, it’s major improvement over Joe Barry
My reaction: "Thank god it's not Brandon Staley"
Never heard of him, but I'll trust the process.
How far do they need to go? Can they lose to the 49ers again? Miss the playoffs?
They need an identity on defense that we can see develop and progress through the season.
0:06 LOOL, 22 jump street is a master piece 😆
Kudos for getting your reaction video out quick for us. I'm watching a day later, and things have settled a wee bit more. Over next door on the pro-Vikings Paul Farington Show, it was pointed out that Jeff Hafley is well liked wherever he goes, and has been very successful at recruiting while at BC--but wanted to concentrate on the coaching end of things. That is not possible in today's college football. We'll have to wait and see, but it could turn out to be a great hire....anyway the dice are thrown!
We said why when Matt LaFleur was hired but he turned put to be a coach of the year level coach. Hopefully we can say the same thing about this new DC.
There is such a world of difference between being a college HC (especially now, especially at a smaller achool like BC) and being an NFL co-ordinator, i wouldn't worry much about his overall record there
I hope that guy can help the Packers this season.
We will see. Even Vince Lombardi would not have done well at BC.
Please run a 4 3 defense.
We don’t need to see Preston Smith play defensive back.
Now you need to do a Packers fan reaction video to the ups and downs, the twists and turns, from the firing of Joe Barry, to each prospective candidate, to the hiring of Jeff Hafley. There should be some comedy gold there.
Always level headed, honest evaluations, Tom. Thanks. Cautiously optimistic. Let's go.
I'm glad to know the Packers figured out who to hire for defensive coordinator.😁
NIL deals and transfer portal is killing college football. Keeping a small time program in competitive mode in a power 5 conference I don’t think is anything to brush off. Sure it’s not like a crazy track record but I’d give it some grace.
It's so refreshing to hear some nuanced, sane takes about a new hire. If you listen to Patriots media, the sky is falling and the team is going 0-17 next year because we haven't hired a hall of fame head coach or offensive coordinator yet
As long as he doesn’t have Preston smith playing corner
That was funny but true
If we switch full time to a 4-3 that wont be an issue.
3-4 however, its not an if its a when
He only had to cover Jefferson and Adams,was that wrong 😂
DC with a bunch of DB experience could be huge, especially given we need a whole new safety room and a corner early wouldn't surprise me either. Plus it sounds like he's aggressive and will play press man, which a lot of CBs love to play. And I'd much rather see us give up a couple deep shots over the course of the season than watching teams just dink and dunk their way down to the red zone pretty much uncontested all year.
As a life long Boston college football fan and alum, I think he’ll be a great defensive coordinator, he’s a great guy, but good luck y’all, he won’t be missed for anything beyond his recruiting ability here at BC, he took our good defense and kept them good, but was never good for our offense. Bad play calling and poor clock management for multiple seasons, we had Zay flowers and Ana amazing o line most of the time, our offense still couldn’t do anything
He’s DC. He has nothing to do with offense.
6-0 vs teams this past year with an offensive rank 75 or lower. 2-4 against offenses ranked 60 and above. And Still he let an FCS school score 28 points then allowed Army who ranked 111th out of 130 teams to score 24 points (a team who avereged only 20 points per game). Not exactly a good resume for a defensive minded guy.
@@brianstollings6416 he was our head coach, I was just stating that fact🤷🏻♂️
@@shawnkurtz4424 absolutely true, which is why he won’t be missed here at BC, good luck lol
When I find myself in times of trouble, Tom Grossi comes to me, singing words of wisdom!
Seems like a well considered move. From what I’ve now read and heard he’s got the stuff
Seems like a coach who loves to coach, and is keen to fundamentally sound play. Anyone who played any sport on a high level gotta love that!!
Proud BC fan here (and recent grad) - Hafley is a perfect fit in Green Bay. He’s great at evaluating talent, he’s gritty and aggressive, and he’ll press. The record at BC is slightly skewed because of BC’s talent comparison to other teams in college football. Even though they’re D1 they have surprisingly stringent rules for athletes so a lot of top talent isn’t interested, and BC has taken some low ranked recruits and made them gems.
Sidebar but now I need to see who BC’s new coach is going to be because it felt like we would finally be good next year
I 100% agree I’m also a BC fan and I’m ready for Tommy’s Heisman season next year 😤
I’m okay with this as long as his experience could lead to a successful Packers team 💚💛
My main concern is when a head coach hires people he is familiar with rather than the best choice, it seems to rarely go well. Granted hiring someone who is the "hottest name" but not gelling with is worse, I still hope this goes better than Joe Berry.
Diamond in the rough, I'm excited for this one, go pack go!!
Grossi at 618k is insane. I remember coming across him years ago in the 15-30k range and he was the exact same. That’s how you become successful, act like you are until you are
A new era begins ( kinda )
Hey sometimes unknowns make a great name for themselves..Godspeed to him and this team!
Yeah I had to look him up too ..... hey might be a diamond in the rough.
Can we stop the run??? Tune in next season
Wait.... Who?
Oh same boat. Appreciate the guide Tom. Thanks dude!
WOOOOOOO NEXT YEAR IS GONNA BE AMAZING FOR THE PACK!!!
your just happy orr didn’t go to the pack 😂😂
Jeff Hafley looks like someone tried drawing either Kyle Shanahan or Dennis Allen from memory
New blood in the ranks . 👏
Wow, no Matt Patricia??? Think of the memes we lost out on.
He looks like he could be Spags son, and honestly that’s probably good enough!
We can only wait and see.
Now let's hope we can find a good S&C coach because I know we are gonna riot if we even hear the mention of hamstring
He started coaching at UAlbany and went to Siena, so a NY connection!
As a Boston College fan, I'm annoyed he would leave for the Packers. But maybe we'll finally get above 6-6 for a regular season.
I taught a student who was once in a commercial with a player who was once coached by the guy just hired to be DC for the team Tom Grossi roots for.
Tom, we're practically brothers!
Poor Matt Patricia...lol
Think of all the memes we lost out on
Okay. The my name is Jeff killed me😂
It took a lot of us out 🤣
What is with the Packers hiring the kid from Diary of a Wimpy Kid!!😂
My mistake that is Greg Heffley. Oh well same thing!!
You either take Jeff and get surprised or take Barry for forever darkness??! 😂
Really was hoping for one of the Ravens' coaches.
Tom, your vid was the first one I checked out this morning on this. I am cautiously optimistic about this hire. He seems to have a good pedigree. And I think we'll see more college Head Coaches head to the NFL as coordinators, as they just want to coach and not deal with the NIL stuff.
FIRE JEFF HAFLY
Better to get ahead of this one right mow
I thought the news was they wernt good friends. Hefley is friends with Salah, but LeFleur and Hefley didnt really interact
For me just as a general life rule, hiring your buddies is a big no-no. I don't know if it will work out, though I hope it does. But what I do know is that if it doesn't work out, Lafleur won't have the backbone to fire his buddy, so if it goes bad it's going to go really bad for us.
No Lafleur didn't fire Barry, he finished his contract and they didn't renew it, there's a big difference.
No. 1 - get rid of the 4th qtr. "prevent defense" when we have a small lead. No rush on QB..........best way we lose games!
I like that Hafley different than the past two DC's. Hafley is more a secondary/DB coach while Pettine and Barry were more LB guys. Besides, I feel like GB's front 4 do a pretty good job of getting pressure. Yeah they don't have a guy who is an absolute game wrecker like a Watt, Garrett, Crosby or Bosa. But as far as sacks go: Gary had 9, Preston had 8, Clark had 7.5, Wyatt had 5.5, Brooks and LVN both had 4 as rotational rookies. Then you have guys like Enagbare, Wooden and Slaton who each contributed a few. I feel like they could benefit more from having an experienced pass rushing coach and then having a DC that can improve the secondary. Kind of like how CM3 had Kevin Greene early in his career. Greene wasn't DC, but he helped mold CM3 early.
hi tom i love your vids and u give me inspiration to start a channel like yours thank you
At first glance it’s concerning to see how many points Boston College let up last year, but there could be so many reasons for that. Hard to be worse than Joey B
Cant imagine BC is getting the best of the best in terms of recruits and transfers. Not to mention guys transferring away hypothetically with NIL and the Portal… however that works. Thats probably got a lot to do with it
@@RedMo46But some are saying he was good at making a players deficiencies when he was at Ohio State. I get he probably wasn't getting top talent there but he also wasn't playing against top talent.
This guy literally feels like a out of nowhere choice
He used to be the lead singer for Spandau Ballet too.
The offensive coordinator for the ravens this year was a former university of Georgia offensive coordinator....I'm satisfied with this
Held lower coaching positions in the NFL - went to the college level as a DC - came back to the NFL as a DC with no prior DC experience in the NFL...
No, it's not Hafley's resumé. It's Mike MacDonald's resumé. And just the other day he easily landed a HC job after running a formidable defense in Baltimore for two years.
That's also in the cards for you...
Now all you need is a new kicker
I hear the Lions have one the packers can have...
Already been addressed.
Or maybe our ROOKIE kicker will have a better second season? Even Mason Crosby had a year with 60% kicking accuracy. And Anders brother became a great kicker after a slow start
Maybe. But that missed FG in the San Francisco game was costly. But who knows, he could be better next year. That would be awesome.
Yesss that kid is done
Are we so sure of the “longtime friend of LaFleur” rumor? Your screenshot only seems to show that he was “friend of a friend” via Steno & Saleh. Is that degree of separation that unusual in the NFL (where all coordinator positions are pinnacle careers, & mostly feature guys that have spent 15+ years on D1 & Pro staffs & have thus crossed paths with lots of coaches)?
I’m currently in the year 2197 and the Packers are still unable to stop the run
I was like who???? I'm here for the information... I swept out a locker room once...Doesn't that qualify me to be a coordinator for the Pack? Here we go again... Well we will see....
This caught me off guard Especially with the amount of dc candidates like vrabale or even bill
More I read about this guy and the success he's had at a very mediocre Boston college school Im getting more and more excited
Fan of the year right here
Been waiting since news broke!
He looks like Tom 😂😂
Don't disrespect my Coach, Grossi.
We might have some hesitation but I think we’ll have more excitement to see if our defense can be improved in a positive manner! Looking forward to 24-25 season! Go Pack Go!!!
Sounds like Matt didn’t really want to gut the assistant coaches in def side due to Matt control the coach and the gm control the player. If this doesn’t work maybe it’s time to scrap the idea of hc and gm their own boss and report to the president/ceo.
For the Love of God, can we sort out special teams and a KICKER....🏈
Could've been worse
You could've gotten Arthur Smith converting to DC
The biggest problem with our defensive staff is there was no successor or up and comer. The d staff is where new ideas and ambition go to die. The offense has a coordinator, quarterbacks coach and interns groomed to succeed their teachers or move on to achieve to own success. Who on the defensive staff can we say that about? We need to develop in-house candidates to succeed our coordinators!
Well that's fast hire
