Three games, three wins, 122 points. Despite warts on defense and an offense that somehow — inexplicably — can still leave points on the field, that’s the story of the 2020 Packers so far. They’re winning, and they’re doing it with a well-executed offense leading the way in record-setting fashion.
And they’re doing it in a tantalizing variety of ways: Aaron Jones running, Aaron Jones catching the ball, Davante Adams dicing up secondaries in the midrange passing game, Allen Lazard and Marquez Valdes-Scantling going deep, tight ends popping wide open on schemed-up looks. The possibilities seem endless.
Of course, the aforementioned defensive warts could still be the Packers’ undoing. But for now, the Packers are rolling and it’s fun to watch.
