Christian Watson’s emergence on Sunday against Dallas provided the Green Bay Packers offense with a much-needed boost. He added that missing big-play ability, totaling 107 yards on only four receptions with three touchdowns, two of which went for 58 and 39 yards.
While Watson’s speed brings the obvious home run potential, a trickle-down effect of having that element in the offense is that it can also open up opportunities for the run game and other pass catchers.
The Packers have struggled to generate steady chunk plays through the air this season, which has been one of the big contributors to their issues with putting up points.
