The Green Bay Packers’ 23-20 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday afternoon put them back in the NFC Playoff picture, albeit by a slim margin. Indeed, Jordan Love and the offense looked just about as good as one could have hoped for, avoiding turnovers, throwing accurately deep down field, and getting into the end zone in the first half. Unfortunately, the victory also saw the Packers saw two of their three running backs exit with significant injuries. Aaron Jones went down with a knee injury that, upon first glance, looked like it was going to be season-ending. While…

The Green Bay Packers defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 23-20 on Sunday afternoon to improve to 4-6 on the season. Jordan Love and the offense play arguably their best and most complete game since Week One when they defeated the Chicago Bears 38-20. But the difference in this game and performance was that the talent and explosiveness of Green Bay’s rookie pass catchers was put on full display. Dontayvion Wicks, who was drafted by the Packers in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, had three receptions for a team-high 91 yards. Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft, both rookie…

The Green Bay Packers, at 4-6, are still in the hunt for a NFC Playoff spot. Of course, making the NFL Playoffs in Jordan Love’s first year as the starting quarterback would mean that the team was able to right the ship after losing four straight games earlier this season. Obviously, to be 4-6, a great deal has gone wrong with the team. While Love and the offense have struggled, and their mistakes highlighted by both local and national media, the defense has also had its fair share of question marks. And of course, the scapegoat for the defense’s struggles…

Former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (MVS) was never really a popular player among the fans. A fifth round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, he spent four seasons in Green Bay with one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time in Aaron Rodgers. When he hit free agency following the 2021 NFL season, MVS signed to play with another all-time great quarterback in Patrick Mahomes with the Kansas City Chiefs. The contract that he signed with them, a three-year $30 million deal, was questioned by Packers fans at the time as a bit of an overpay. The…

The Green Bay Packers are one of the oldest and most storied franchises in the history of all of professional sports, let alone the NFL. Due to this, when team records are encroached upon, it is generally a pretty big deal. It is not easy to set a record or to be the first to accomplish something on a team that has been around for over 100 years. Thus far in 2023, the Packers have two players, Luke Musgrave and Jayden Reed, that are on pace to challenge Sterling Sharpe’s franchise record for most receptions in a season by a…

The Green Bay Packers, at 4-6, do not have much of a chance of catching the Detroit Lions, who are 8-2, for the top spot in the NFC North. However, Green Bay is just a game out of the final Wild Card spot in the NFC with seven games left to play. Of course, in order to get to that spot, the Packers will need to play exceptional football for the rest of the season. “The rest of the season” begins Thursday when they will take on the Lions on Thanksgiving for the first time since 2013. The last time…

The Green Bay Packers suffered some serious injury setbacks in the win against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Despite improving to 4-6 and just a game out of the final wild card spot in the NFC Playoffs, the Packers lost two running backs, Aaron Jones and Emanuel Wilson, to injuries. As a result, they brought back James Robinson (practice squad) and Patrick Taylor (active roster). In addition to these moves, the Packers also released safety Dallin Leavitt, who was flagged twice on the opening kickoff against the Chargers. They also released linebacker Christian Young from their practice squad. Green…

The Green Bay Packers lost two of their three running backs to injury during their 23-20 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Aaron Jones left the game with a knee injury while Emanuel Wilson exited with a dislocated shoulder. Both players are believed to have escaped long-term injuries, but the Packers have a quick turnaround and play the Detroit Lions on Thursday (Thanksgiving). Even in the best-case scenario, given what the injuries are believed to be, neither Jones nor Wilson will be ready to return by then. Earlier today, it was reported that the Packers had signed running…

The Green Bay Packers defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 23-20 on Sunday afternoon to improve to 4-6. The win placed Green Bay just a game outside of the final wild card spot in the NFC Playoff picture. Unfortunately, the win came at a staggering price. The Packers saw not one, but two of their three running backs exit with injuries. Aaron Jones suffered a knee injury that, upon first glance, appeared to be season-ending. However, initial tests ruled out a torn ACL and he may return yet this season. Tests are still being performed today. Emanuel Wilson left the game…

The Green Bay Packers defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 23-20 on Sunday afternoon. The win improved Green Bay’s record to 4-6 and put them in the hunt for a NFC Playoff spot. It was a back-and-forth affair with the Packers not sealing the win until a defensive stop (helped by a few Chargers’ wide receiver drops) with less than a minute left in the game. As has become the unfortunate norm for the Packers this season, the game saw them lose several crucial players to injury, whether it was for a few snaps or perhaps longer term with something more…
