From the episode

I think that that's why we saw Chris Brooks play so much over Marshawn Lloyd to the Vikings blitzed almost 80 percent of the time on early down.

STACKED’s take

NeutralUsage

Brooks gets heavy snaps over Lloyd due to Vikings' 80% blitz rate.

Brooks received significant snaps in Week 1 over Marshawn Lloyd due to the Vikings' heavy blitz scheme (80% on early downs), which forced the Packers to use their pass-catching back more frequently. This usage pattern may not be sticky long-term and was likely game-plan specific.
