Green Bay Packers’ stock report: Market crashes after ugly loss to Vikings
We are introducing a new version of the Green Bay Packers stock report for this season, a method that will keep running tabs on individual performances.
Every player will begin the year in neutral territory and will gain or lose points depending on their performances (based only on offensive or defensive snaps). We’ll keep a running tally throughout the year to track their successes (or lack thereof).
There will be five categories–crashing down (a loss of two points from the previous week’s game), trending down (a loss of points between 1.9 to 0.1), neutral territory (zero points lost or gained), trending up (a gain of points between .1 and 1.9) and skyrocketing (a gain of two points). We’ll be using PFF’s grades to guide us.
So, without further ado, let’s dive in!
The Green Bay Packers have a plethora of players trending down in this week’s version of their stock market following an ugly loss to the Vikings.
Packers’ stock report: Crashing Down (a loss of two points)
Zach Tom, Jake Hanson Adrian Amos, Darnell Savage, Isaiah McDuffie, and Jonathan Garvin
Zach Tom finished with the worst PFF grade of any offensive player for the Packers, but that doesn’t match what other analysts saw. Tom had a couple of good blocks that sprung players open and appeared to hold his own. However, PFF saw differently so we’ll (reluctantly) use their grading system.
It’s also not a positive sign another prominent members of the Packers’ offensive line showed up here. Jake Hanson started at right guard and struggled mightily in pass protection.
The defensive side of the ball might’ve been even uglier for Amos and Savage. The safety duo struggled all game long and looked silly on a couple of Justin Jefferson receptions. This was the worst game the pair has played together.
