GREEN BAY http://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Jace-Sternberger-Jersey , Wis. — Matt LaFleur opened his first training camp as Packers head coach on Wednesday by saying the offense is still a “work in progress.”LaFleur said he will continue working to figure out what this team does best before it opens the season Sept. 5 on the road against rival Chicago.More Packers coverageBucks’ Wes Matthews loves Wisconsin, is a Vikings fanPreview: Packers look to slow Vikings’ revitalized run gameTop Tweets: Yelich thanks fans for support after season-ending injuryAmos sparks rebuilt Packers defense in debutPackers to be tested again by familiar foe in Zimmer, Vikings“It’s taking it one day at a time,” he said. “How can we get better each and every day and along the way, again, finding out exactly what our guys do well so we can keep showcasing that and do that to play to our strengths. Because this game is about the players, there’s no doubt.”In Green Bay, the key player is Aaron Rodgers, who at 34 is just five years younger than his new head coach. LaFleur called the two-time NFL MVP one of the most competitive players he’s ever been around.“You can see it on a daily basis,” LaFleur said. “It’s not just on the field, it’s in the meeting room, too. I just enjoy our communication. I enjoy the challenge. He’s an extremely intelligent player that has played a lot of ball and you better know what you’re talking about.”Rodgers threw only two interceptions in 597 pass attempts last season and compiled the second-most passing yards in 11 years as a starter. But his 25 touchdown passes were the fewest of his career when he’s played all 16 games. Wide receiver Randall Cobb, now with Dallas, was sidelined for large part of last season with a hamstring injury.LaFleur spent last season as offensive coordinator for the Tennessee Titans Elgton Jenkins Jersey , his first time calling plays in the NFL. He takes over for Mike McCarthy, who was fired last season following a stunning home loss to Arizona in December as the Packers headed toward a second consecutive year without a playoff berth.LaFleur said he anticipates rookie safety Darnell Savage being ready for Thursday’s practice, the first of camp. Savage was placed on the non-football illness list Monday after having a dental procedure completed.“That’s kind of day by day thing to see how he feels,” LaFleur said of the 21st overall pick from Maryland who is well on his way to a starting job next to Adrian Amos.Former Pro Bowl defensive tackle Mike Daniels is expected to be released after seven seasons with Green Bay, a move that comes after the Packers signed Dean Lowry to a three-year, $20.3 million deal.“I know he’s meant a lot to this community, this football team,” LaFleur said of Daniels. “I still think he’s a really good player. I wish him well. But we feel really, really good about the group we have.”Notes: LaFleur is in a walking boot for at least the next couple weeks as he recovers from a ruptured Achilles tendon he suffered in May. With time winding down in the first half, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers were near midfield trying to get into field-goal range to add onto a 17-7 lead.Rodgers handled a snap on second-and-22, felt pressure, escaped the pocket and scrambled for 21 yards before he slid to mark the play dead. But Atlanta defensive back Brian Poole collided with Rodgers as the quarterback was sliding.The Packers didn't like that — and a fight broke out.Leading the charge was Lucas Patrick, a third-year player who was getting his first start of the season at left guard. Defending Rodgers, Patrick took on about five Falcons himself before Corey Linsley http://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Darnell-Savage-Jr.-Jersey , Robert Tonyan and Randall Cobb stepped in the scrum.It was a miniscule moment in a rather impressive 34-20 win over Atlanta, but Patrick displayed the type of fight this Packers team had been lacking during their three-game losing streak.Filling in for an injured Lane Taylor at left guard, Patrick played in all 65 snaps against the Falcons. He had appeared in just 24 total snaps on the season coming into Sunday's game, and it was his first action on the field since Week 6.After spending 2016 on Green Bay's practice squad, Patrick stepped in last season and played 227 offensive snaps while starting two games due to injury.He was one of three backup linemen to start against the Falcons, joining Justin McCray and Jason Spriggs. Rodgers had good protection most of the afternoon, although Pro Football Focus claims Patrick allowed four quarterback pressures.Other notes from Sunday's snap counts:— For the first time all season, wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown played more snaps (34) than Marquez Valdes-Scantling (30).— It seemed odd when Jamaal Williams got the start at running back, but when all was said and done, Aaron Jones ended up getting more snaps and significantly more touches. Jones rushed 17 times and caught three passes, while Williams only saw four carries — three of those in the first half.— Cornerback Bashaud Breeland returned from a two-game absence and picked off his second pass of the season, taking it to the house in the second quarter for a 17-7 Packers lead. He played 23 total defensive snaps, 13 of those from the slot.— Fan-favorite receiver Jake Kumerow played just six snaps and was not targeted by Rodgers. He made his NFL debut a week ago.OFFENSEPLAYERPlays (65)%Patrick65100%Spriggs65100%Linsley65100%Bakhtiari6498%Rodgers6498%McCray6295%Adams5686%Graham4772%Cobb4468%Jones4265%St. Brown3452%Valdes-Scantling3046%Williams2437%Kendricks1726%Lewis1625%Tonyan711%Kumerow69%Light35%Vitale23%Pankey12%Kizer12%DEFENSEPLAYERPlays (71)%Martinez71100%Alexander71100%Williams71100%Brice6592%Jones6389%Brown5983%Fackrell5780%Lowry5679%Jackson5679%Matthews5577%Clark5172%Gilbert3042%Breeland2332%Lancaster2231%Adams1217%Morrison710%Pleasant68%Redmond57%Brown11%
