Latest news and updates about the Packers
It’s been a rough week for Green Bay Packers fans. They fell to the Carolina Panthers in what can only be described as a trap game — an unfortunate specialty of head coach Matt LaFleur at this point.

I wanted to take a deeper dive into the data this week to learn something about the Green Bay Packers. On the surface, it doesn’t seem like Rashan Gary has been very effective this year, despite posting 7.5 sacks.

The trade deadline came and went without the Green Bay Packers making another big swing, but there are still a handful of holes that general manager Brian Gutekunst will need to address this offseason in order to be a legitimate contender in 2026 and beyond.

I tell you, I’ve seen more frustrating games, but I really can’t remember when (Week 3 of this year, actually). Watching live, this felt like a game where the Green Bay Packers just kept shooting themselves in the foot, and I haven’t seen many stats since then that have suggested otherwise. Looking at this drive […]

The Green Bay Packers have signed two players to their practice squad on the day of the NFL trade deadline: tight end McCallan Castles and receiver Michael Woods II.

At the trade deadline, the Dallas Cowboys traded for New York Jets defensive tackle Quinnen Williams, which is interesting considering that the team just traded for Kenny Clark this summer and extended Osa Odighizuwa this offseason, but that’s besides the point.

After the abysmal showing that the Green Bay Packers put forth on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, it would be reasonable to expect the Packers to be underdogs when facing one of the top teams in the NFC this coming week.
