NFL power rankings: Which teams will have the best passing attack this season?

25. Green Bay Packers

It is going to feel really weird seeing the Green Bay Packers’ passing attack struggle. After all, it’s been over three decades of nothing but gold, no pun intended. Green Bay had the luxury of Brett Favre followed by Aaron Rodgers, and now they’re turning it over to Jordan Love in his first year as the team’s starter and fourth year in the league, overall.

Last season, with Rodgers, the Packers finished 17th in passing. Read that again, folks.

The Packers, with Aaron Rodgers, finished in the back half of the NFL in passing.

This year, the Packers are a mystery at quarterback and wide receiver. We saw plenty of great things out of Christian Watson as a rookie, and Romeo Doubs gave us reason for hope as well. But, again, that was with Rodgers. Was it a lot to do with Rodgers and less to do with the talent at receiver?

I suppose we’ll find out. But, something tells me Love is not going to pan out the way Packer fans would like to see. He was a wildcard in college at Utah State, yet somehow ended up in the first round. He’s got a great arm but makes some throws reminiscent of bad Jay Cutler.

Yes, Packer fans, I just compared your new starting quarterback to Jay Cutler.
