It has been a struggle for the Green Bay Packers’ offense in the first half of their season-opening match-up with the Seattle Seahawks.

More from Green Bay Packers

The Seahawks have gotten pressure on Packers’ quarterback Aaron Rodgers because the Packers’ offensive tackles have a lot of trouble handling the speed of the Seahawks’ pass rush. They have forced Rodgers into a few mistakes. They’ve also been solid against the run aside from a few impressive runs from second-year pro Eddie Lacy in the first half.

That’s why the Packers were looking for a spark in the second half. Trailing 20-10, the Packers decided to go for it on fourth-and-five. Rodgers dropped back to pass but had no time and was sacked by Cliff Avril, giving the ball back to the Seahawks.
