The Green Bay Packers’ season began with plenty of high hopes, especially after the trade for Micah Parsons. But with lackluster offensive performances and the losses that have followed in recent weeks, the season suddenly feels in doubt — particularly with the Packers staring down the barrel of back-to-back-to-back divisional matchups.
At noon today, Green Bay kicks off against the struggling New York Giants. The Packers are 7.5-point favorites, but that guarantee means nothing if the offense doesn’t hold up its end of the bargain. The defense has been playing at a Super Bowl-caliber level, yet the offense simply hasn’t matched it.
