If the Green Bay Packers ultimately trade Aaron Rodgers, here are three winnable games on the Packer schedule they could lose in the 2021 season.

The Green Bay Packers are the talk of the NFL offseason after a bombshell report indicated that quarterback Aaron Rodgers has no desire to return to the team. While the team publicly stated that had no plans in trading Rodgers, they may very well have no choice in the matter.

On Wednesday, most NFL fans are excited about the reveal of the entire 2021 schedule. For Packers fans, they are pacing back and forth, wondering if Rodgers will even be starting under center for the team. If Rodgers is no longer a member of the Packers, some winnable games will be a challenge for the team. Here are three games that stand out.

3. Seattle Seahawks

It is only fitting that the Seattle Seahawks make this list, considering they also had to deal with reported quarterback drama with Russell Wilson. But as the months passed, Wilson and the Seahawks are seemingly on good terms.

The Seahawks retained much of their corps this offseason (i.e. defensive end Carlos Dunlap, running back Chris Carson) while making one big move in acquiring former Las Vegas Raiders offensive guard Gabe Jackson. However, they only had three picks in the 2021 NFL Draft, so it will essentially be the same squad that was eliminated in the NFC Wild Card Round running it back for the 2021 season.

Given Seattle’s struggles on the offensive line, it should serve as an easy day in the office for the Packers. But if Rodgers is not there, that means the Packers’ offense could struggle to put points on the board, thus keeping Seattle in the game. The last thing Green Bay needs is Wilson pulling off a miracle, which he has shown throughout his career that he is entirely capable of doing.

If the Packers offense fails to produce under new quarterback Jordan Love, then they will be handed a loss by the Seahawks.
