In a 35-14 home loss to the Atlanta Falcons, the Green Bay Packers are facing significant issues that could jeopardize their season. The team is averaging only 48.7 rushing yards per game, which is the worst in the NFL and far below their goal. Quarterback Jordan Love has faced pressure on 44.4% of his dropbacks, leading to a disappointing 9-of-25 completion percentage and an interception in the loss.
The Packers' offensive line, meanwhile, has been struggling with an average time to throw of 2.92 seconds and a pass block win rate of just 18%, ranking 33rd and 32nd in the league respectively. Finally, the team's defensive performance has been lackluster, with an Expected Points Added per Play of 0.092, placing them 25th in the league.
