Cheese usually gets better with age, but somehow the Packers’ offense got worse week by week this season, and when Green Bay lost 10-27 to the New York Jets on Sunday, it definitely hit rock bottom. reached.
Aaron Rodgers might want to consider attacking at an ayahuasca retreat. Because no matter what this group does now, it’s not working.
As soon as the game started, the Packers’ offense seemed lost with every touch of the ball. On the first possession, the Packers went 3-and-out and things got worse after that. Following the three-and-out, here’s what happened in his next nine possessions. Punt, punt, blocked field goal, punt, fumble, down, field goal, punt, blocked punt TD.
This might be what you’d expect from the Jets of old, but it’s not the case for the Packers. One of his problems for Greenbay is that Rogers doesn’t seem to trust his recipients. Last season Rodgers had Davante Adams. When other teams put pressure on Rodgers this season, he has nowhere to go, and the Jets definitely pressured him in this game, so the play is essentially dead (they put Rodgers at 4 dismissed twice).
It also doesn’t help that Rogers is less accurate than he has been in the last two years. Against the Jets, Rodgers missed his usual throws, including a lower pass that was thrown about 10 yards down.
Overall, Rodgers made only 26 of 41 passes against New York and also lost the fumble that led to the Jets’ field goal.
One thing that may be contributing to his accuracy issues is that Rogers appears to be dealing with an injured thumb. He bumped his finger last week and no doubt it was still haunting him on Sunday.
It’s not easy for the Packers to fix an offense when it’s an injury that doesn’t heal quickly.
Even when the Packers can’t throw the ball, the offense usually works thanks to Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon, but now the team expects it. The Packers’ opponents seem fully aware that the passing game is off, and as such are ready to stop the run.
Here is Jones being beaten in a loss to Quinen Williams.
That tackle, in a nutshell, was Sunday’s Green Bay ground game, where the Packers averaged just 3 yards per carry against the Jets.
For once, the Packers may actually be in trouble. The Packers are 3-3, scoring 15 or less in 3 of their 6 games, and there’s no easy way to fix their offense. His three-year reign in the NFC North of the team is coming to an end if Green Bay can’t fix it soon.
