Overview

  • The Green Bay Packers are facing their fourth consecutive loss due to a combination of a high penalty rate and lackluster performance from first-season quarterback Jordan Love.
  • The Packers have committed an average of 7.4 penalties per game, leading the league in this statistic. In their game against the Minnesota Vikings, the Packers committed 11 penalties for 99 yards.
  • Despite having a promising start early in the season, Love's performance has declined significantly, contributing to the team's losing streak. His eight interceptions on throws of 10 or more yards are the most in the NFL.
  • In addition to Love's struggles, drop catches and offensive line struggles are also factors in the Packers' decline. Head coach Matt LaFleur has expressed dissatisfaction with the overall team performance.
  • The Packers have been outscored 73-9 in the first half of their last five games. Despite coming back from injuries, key players such as De'Vondre Campbell and Jaire Alexander have been unable to turn the tide.
