Following their playoff loss to the Eagles, the Green Bay Packers' management, led by coach Matt LaFleur and general manager Brian Gutekunst, reflected on the team's shortcomings shown in that game. Key issues included insufficient pass rush and lack of explosive offensive targets for quarterback Jordan Love. The injury to deep-threat receiver Christian Watson compounded these problems, as the team struggled to score points effectively, culminating in a disappointing 10-point performance against the Eagles. Gutekunst emphasized the importance of evaluating the team's overall capabilities, rather than being overly reactive to one game.
In the NFL equivalent of a presidential term's first 100 days, it became clear what the coach and general manager thought prevented the Green Bay Packers from making a Super Bowl run last season.
Losing deep-threat receiver Christian Watson to a torn right ACL the previous week didn't help a receiving corps that either couldn't get open or didn't have enough time to do so because of pressure on Love.
You're evaluating your team through the entire year, you're evaluating it against the National Football League and yourselves.
