Packers Will Keep Jordan Love Upright

Green Bay will continue to exploit their advantage at the line of scrimmage, as they’ll keep Jordan Love on his feet once again. Love, who was only sacked once in the season-opener, had all day to throw, work through his progressions, and find the open man.

The Falcons have Grady Jarrett, a two-time Pro Bowler, on the interior, which could spell trouble for Josh Myers. The Packers will have to send plenty of help Myers’s way in the form of Jon Runyan and Elgton Jenkins.

If they can handle Jarrett, however, there are few pass-rushing weapons on the edge they need to be worried about. Zach Tom and whoever ends up being the other tackle against the Falcons will dominate and make life easier for Love.
