There will be many questions that the Green Bay Packers will need to answer this season. Some questions will be bigger than others. One of the biggest questions that they will need to answer is how will this new 4-3 defensive scheme help.
They had played a 3-4 defensive scheme in the past, but the Green Bay Packers defense needed a new identity. They addressed the defense through the NFL Draft and also NFL free agency.
Another question that they will have to answer is how the offensive line will perform. That was a weakness on the offensive side of the football a season ago.
CBS Sports Cody Benjamin Thinks the Green Bay Packers Biggest Question This Season Is ‘Can Jordan Love Build Off His Promising Debut?’
It is not a surprise that this is going to be the biggest question for the Green Bay Packers entering the 2024 season. Quarterback Jordan Love showed a lot of potential last season and now will need a new contract extension. Will he take his game to another level this season or will he regress from a season ago?
Cody Benjamin of CBS Sports wrote about Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love:
“Few quarterbacks were as dazzling to close 2023 as Love, who went from erratic to MVP-esque in his first full year replacing Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay seems content with his progression, too, considering the Packers barely touched their crowded room of young wideouts this offseason, allowing the likes of Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, Dontayvion Wicks and Romeo Doubs to headline the aerial attack. A beefed-up ground game featuring Josh Jacobs and MarShawn Lloyd should help, as should a defense aided by a new patroller in Xavier McKinney. But their ceiling as a team will depend primarily on Love’s next step: With contract questions swirling in the background, can he rein in his inner Brett Favre to make smart reads with such a gifted arm? If so, this club is primed to be a weekly pest in and outside of the NFC North.”
The NFL is a quarterback-driven league. Teams don’t win Super Bowls these days without elite quarterback play. Jordan Love showed that a season ago. His late-game interception against the San Francisco 49ers in the playoffs last season was not the reason why they lost. Love will learn from that moment and only get better.

He completed 64.2% of his passes for 4,159 yards, 32 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions last season. Some NFL fans may even place MVP bets on Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love this season. As long as Love doesn’t massively regress or get hurt, they’ll be a playoff team again this season.
