Key Areas Where Packers Excel: Conversions Offense

The Packers have shown considerable improvement when they have possession of the ball. They rank 11th in third-down conversion efficiency and an impressive fourth in touchdown percentage in the red zone.

This marks a notable turnaround from the declining performance the team experienced during the final years of Aaron Rodgers’ tenure. In those seasons, the Packers struggled to convert red zone opportunities into touchdowns.

Jordan Love has demonstrated an ability to work in rhythm, find open receivers, and even make improvised plays when in the red zone. His mobility adds another dimension to the offense. Credit also goes to head coach Matt LaFleur, whose creativity has been on full display and contributed to the team’s strong red zone performance.
