The Packers are asking Jordan Love to do something historically difficult
With an impotent rushing attack and a league-leading number of drops, Jordan Love is being asked to carry a pretty one-dimensional Packers offense.
Jordan Love, the quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, is currently on pace to set a franchise record for passing yards this season. Through eight games, Love has thrown for 2,246 yards and 16 touchdowns, putting him at the forefront of the NFL. However, Love is facing significant challenges as the Packers are struggling on both sides of the ball.
The team is averaging only 60.6 rushing yards per game, the lowest mark in the NFL over the past decade. They are also responsible for 23 dropped passes, the highest number in the league. In a recent game against the Carolina Panthers, Green Bay managed a mere 66 rushing yards on 26 carries. These struggles have put pressure on Love to consistently throw the ball to escape the defensive pressure.
Despite these obstacles, Love has shown resilience and continues to perform admirably, keeping the Packers' offense entertaining for fans.
