Former Packers assistant coach Bob Schnelker dies at 88

Schnelker served two stints as an assistant coach with the Packers: The first from 1966 to 1971, including two seasons under Vince Lombardi, and the other as offensive coordinator from 1982 to 1985.

During those four seasons, the Packers ranked 12th, 2nd, 6th and 12th in total yards with an offense featuring Pro Football Hall of Fame receiver James Lofton, quarterback Lynn Dickey, an offensive line led by Packers Hall of Famers Larry McCarren and Greg Koch, and several other explosive weapons.

Schnelker was the Packers’ receivers coach when they won Super Bowls I and II.
