Packers defense has one glaring issue to resolve after BYE Week

After two weeks, the NFL world seemed to think that the Green Bay Packers had the best defense in the NFL. After another two weeks, that idea seemed to have been presented prematurely.

Sure, the Packers’ defense is still an impressive force. After all, it’s led by the frontrunner for the 2025 NFL Defensive Player of the Year in Micah Parsons and a quality defensive coordinator in Jeff Hafley, who could get a few calls for head coaching positions this offseason.

Still, for all the good the Packers defense has done through four weeks, there’s one aspect it needs to clean up on the other side of the BYE Week.
