The Packers’ offense has become something of a Rorschach test. Everyone seems to agree that something isn’t right, but it’s hard to put a finger on just one thing that’s wrong. If you stare at it long enough, though, you kind of start to see what you want to see. The most frustrating thing? You’re still probably right.
Do you think coaching is the issue? There’s evidence to support that.
Are you of the persuasion that Aaron Rodgers could be playing better? You can quite easily argue that position, too.
Do you think the Packers need more reliable contributions from playmakers not named Davante Adams and Aaron Jones? You probably don’t even have to look up any stats or game clips to get people to agree with you.
Such is the state of the Packers this season. The general offensive malaise makes finding the root cause a difficult exercise, but whatever road you take, the final conclusion seems to be that the Packers just aren’t terribly threatening on that side of the ball right now.
