When the Green Bay Packers first traded Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets, there was a great deal of excitement among both fanbases. Packers fans were excited for the prospect of getting another first round pick (all Rodgers had to do was play 65% of the Jets’ offensive snaps) and to see what the team has in 2020 NFL Draft pick Jordan Love. Jets fans, of course, were excited to have one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history on their team. Unfortunately, for both teams and fanbases, Rodgers’ first season in New York last just four snaps. The…

The Milwaukee Bucks are going to have one of the best starting lineups in the NBA this season. By all accounts, they had one of the best starting five over the last three years with Jrue Holiday as their starting point guard. However, that lineup got even better when they traded Holiday and starting shooting guard Grayson Allen for seven-time All-Star Damian Lillard. Now the Bucks’ starting lineup boasts Lillard, three-time All-Star Khris Middleton, arguably the best player in the NBA in Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Defensive Player of the Year finalist Brook Lopez. As it has been over the last…

It is hard to recall a time when a Milwaukee Bucks preseason game received as much hype as their most recent contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. Of course, this is entirely due to the fact that the Bucks’ matchup with the Lakers marked the preseason debuts of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard, suiting up for the first time as teammates on a NBA roster (they were teammates on previous All-Star teams). While the Bucks were not playing at full strength (Khris Middleton remained out), having Giannis and Lillard on the court gave fans a glimpse of just how dominant…

The Green Bay Packers have looked brilliant at times through five games of their 2023 NFL season. They have also looked lost and bewildered at other times and are 2-3. While there are plenty of fingers being pointed at Jordan Love and the numerous injuries that the team has suffered, there is one glaring hole that needs more attention from the coaching staff: the offensive line. Losing left tackle David Bakhtiari was a crushing blow. Ever since Green Bay’s Week One 38-20 win over the Chicago Bears, the offensive line has struggled. While pass protection remains a relative strength, run…

The Green Bay Packers loss to the Las Vegas Raiders could have gone so much differently. There were several plays that, had they been just slightly different, could have changed the course of the game in favor of Green Bay. For instance, if Christian Watson had not let a five-foot-nine cornerback body him on a 50/50 ball on the Packers’ last drive of the game, he probably would have caught a touchdown instead of Jordan Love being credited with an interception. However, the play that sticks out the most in terms of game-changing plays was Love’s 77-yard pass to Watson…

The Green Bay Packers are 2-3 on the season following two frustrating losses, one to the Detroit Lions and another to the Las Vegas Raiders. In both games, starting quarterback Jordan Love experienced the bumps that Green Bay coaches predicted he would when they discussed the goal for the season during training camp. Back then, head coach Matt LaFleur reiterated time and time again that there would be ups and downs. After all, Love is not the only first-year starter on offense. Zach Tom is starting at right tackle after being a backup lineman last year. Tucker Kraft and Luke…

To say that the Green Bay Packers must be disappointed in themselves going into their Bye Week would be an understatement. Sure, they expected there to be ups and downs, learning/growing opportunities, and the like. But to be unable to score a touchdown in the first half of three consecutive games? That’s troublesome. And of course, much of the blame is being piled on the throwing arm of Jordan Love, the Packers’ first year starter. Even though he has already led the Packers to their largest fourth quarter comeback in franchise history, even though he is the only quarterback in franchise history…

The Green Bay Packers offense needs a spark. Unfortunately, head coach Matt LaFleur doesn’t seem to know how to light that spark. This is not an opinion; he admitted it himself. After the Packers’ 17-13 loss to the lowly Las Vegas Raiders, LaFleur addressed the media and expressed his bewilderment as to why his offense has not been able to score a touchdown until after halftime in their last three games. According to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, LaFleur said: “Obviously searching for a little bit of answers right now,” he said after the loss to the Raiders. “I think this…

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo was recently named the NBA’s best player by ESPN. While this ranking was welcomed by Bucks fans, there were many other fans and analysts who vehemently disagreed. Many believe that Nikola Jokic, who won a NBA Championship with the Denver Nuggets last season, should be the top-ranked player in the NBA. The debate over the greatness of Giannis and Jokic has waged on for several seasons, with the two players combining for four of the past five NBA MVP Awards. By all metrics, Giannis is the superior defender of the two while Jokic’s offensive prowess…

The Green Bay Packers’ last four games have been as frustrating as they come. After scoring 38 points against the Chicago Bears in Week One, the Packers are averaging just 19 points per game. For three consecutive games, Green Bay’s offense has failed to score a touchdown in the first half. Of course, there are several reasons for the lack of dynamic playmaking since Week One. One of the most glaring reasons is the injury to Aaron Jones. In the Packers’ victory over the Bear, Jones had 127 total yards and two touchdowns. On that day, he accounted for 38%…
