Jeff Hafley's first season as the defensive coordinator for the Green Bay Packers showcased a unique approach to generating pressure, leading to impressive statistics regarding blitzing strategies. The Packers led the NFL with a 48.3% pressure rate on blitz attempts and ranked fifth with a 46.7% pressure rate on stunts. Key contributors included linebacker Edgerrin Cooper and cornerback Keisean Nixon, both of whom achieved exceptional pass-rush grades over 90.0. Despite an inconsistent four-man rush, Hafley adapted by employing creative blitzes, significantly impacting opposing quarterbacks.

Hafley's innovative methods not only highlighted the effectiveness of secondary defenders but also revealed the team's potential for evolution heading into the 2025 season. With players like Cooper producing 12 pressures on limited attempts and Quay Walker contributing 14 pressures, the Packers' defense demonstrated resilience and adaptability. This offseason, Hafley's focus will be on refining the pressure packages to maintain a competitive edge against evolving offensive strategies.
