Reality Check #1: The Packers are lackluster

This is at least the second time this season we’ve seen Green Bay play an entire game with little to no energy. And both games have been against one-win teams at the time (the other coming a few weeks ago against the then 1-5 Minnesota Vikings).

As Jacksonville was flying around on defense and screaming after making tackle after tackle, neither Green Bay’s offense nor defense had any energy or passion that was evident from the outside.

That’s amazing considering the Packers are a veteran-laden team with a lot of great leaders on both sides of the ball. They need to find their mojo moving forward and find a way to create their own energy and passion even without the crowd there cheering them on.
