On paper, the Green Bay Packers’ defense is stacked. Kenny Clark, Rashan Gary, and Preston Smith lead a formidable front. Jaire Alexander, Eric Stokes, and Rasul Douglas make up a strong cornerback trio. Adrian Amos and Darnell Savage hold things down at safety. At linebacker, the Packers have a reigning All-Pro in De’Vondre Campbell.
But this unit’s production does not come close to aligning with its talent level. Coordinator Joe Barry has the Packers’ defense ranked just 13th-best in points allowed per drive at 1.80. That isn’t a terrible ranking by any means, but it is quite disappointing for a defense as talented as Green Bay’s.
