Green Bay Packers: 5 toughest games on the 2019 schedule
1. Week 8 @ Kansas City Chiefs
We all knew this was coming. The Packers on Sunday Night Football against one of the best teams in football from last season. Kansas City’s offense rode Patrick Mahomes to multiple records, and they torched opposing defenses without breaking a sweat. On the road in primetime, Green Bay is going to have their toughest matchup of the season, and it isn’t close.
This game may not be the meeting of offensive minds that we saw last year between the Chiefs and the Los Angeles Rams, but it has the potential another high-scoring affair between two of the best quarterbacks in football. Both teams aren’t too bad at running the football either. It could come down to which team gets that final stop, which is what won that huge shootout last season.
If both fanbases get their wish, this will be just a Super Bowl preview of better days to come. We’ll get to see both teams put up over 40 points, and the defenses will get frequent breaks after multiple scoring plays. This game has the potential to be the NFL’s game of the year. Without a doubt, Green Bay has this one circled on the calendar a few different times.
