Three Biggest Questions Facing Green Bay Packers’ Defense in 2020
Here are the three biggest questions the Green Bay Packers’ defense must answer before the start of the 2020 regular season.
Ouuu boy! We are getting closer and closer to the beginning of the NFL season with the Green Bay Packers‘ first game less than two weeks away. This whole season will have a different feel with COVID putting its handprints all over the place, beginning with no preseason games to get the players ready.
In lieu of the exhibition season, the Packers and the rest of the NFL have been forced to use an extended training camp to evaluate their team and figure out who is ready for big roles moving forward.
Green Bay made some nice improvements on the defensive side of the ball last season, thanks, in large part, to the free agent acquisitions of Za’Darius Smith and Preston Smith. The outside linebackers made an immediate impact on their pass rush, as they both racked up double-digit sacks. There are some other good players on this side of the ball including Kenny Clark and Jaire Alexander. However, there are a few lingering questions they must answer if they want to win back-to-back NFC North titles.
