Is Brian Gutekunst’s Youth Movement Backfiring?

Constant errors from his supporting cast is making the evaluation of Jordan Love a challenge.

Back in August, general manager Brian Gutekunst was asked about the fact Green Bay’s offense had gotten drastically younger during the 2023 off-season.

Gutekunst said the goal was not to get younger, but to be “athletic and fast.”

While that goal may have been achieved, the reality is that the Packers offense is incredibly young and inexperienced. That is showing itself on the field each week, and never more than in the latest loss to the Vikings.

Gone from the roster are Marcedes Lewis, Randall Cobb, Sammy Watkins, Robert Tonyan, and Allen Lazard, leaving Jordan Love with only first and second year receivers as pass catchers.
