4 Burning Questions Looming Over Packers’ 2023 NFL Season
Will Packers’ Defense Play Up To Expectations?
Joe Barry has been the mastermind behind underwhelming defensive seasons in Green Bay, a budding tradition for this group of players. Can they finally turn that narrative on it’s head this season?
The Packers used their first-round pick on Lukas Van Ness, giving them eight first-rounders on this unit–Van Ness, Devonte Wyatt, Quay Walker, Savage, Rashan Gary, Jaire Alexander, Kenny Clark and Eric Stokes. At some point, those players must begin living up to their collective draft position regardless of the defensive coordinator.
It will be essential for this unit to carry the load early on. It will likely take some time for Love to adjust to the game and settle in. The D can’t afford an up-and-down performance like we’ve been accustomed to over the last several years.
