There’s a very real chance that the Green Bay Packers, who books seem to believe will be sitting out their starters in Week 18, will end the regular season by finishing the year 0-4. After locking in the seventh seed for the third year in a row, some are wondering whether Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, who new Green Bay president and CEO Ed Policy did not extend this offseason, is still fighting for his job in 2026.

I want to hear what you guys think.

For the most part, I really see one of two things happening this offseason:...

After giving up over 300 rushing yards to the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday, the Green Bay Packers claimed defensive tackle Jonathan Ford off waivers on Monday. Ford was originally drafted by the Packers in 2022 in the seventh round. He spent three years with the team, but never played in a regular-season game for Green Bay.

In 2024, Ford was poached off the Packers’ practice squad and was added to the Chicago Bears’ 53-man roster. Since then, Ford has played 173 snaps of defense over 12 games for the Bears.

The Packers had an open roster spot [because of the...

The injuries have taken quite a toll on the Green Bay Packers over the past few weeks. Now, with the team locked into the 7 seed in the NFC playoffs ahead of their regular season finale at the Minnesota Vikings, the Packers are expected to sit several banged-up players for that game, a group that could include quarterbacks Jordan Love and Malik Willis.

As a result, sportsbooks are leaning hard into the expectation that key Packers will sit out, making the Vikings significant home favorites in this game. After losing four straight and six of seven games at midseason, Minnesota...

On Monday morning, Green Bay Packers defensive star Micah Parsons shared on his Instagram that he was heading into surgery to repair his torn ACL. The Athletic’s Matt Schneidman shared a screenshot of Parsons’ Instagram Story on Twitter/X.

Parsons tore his ACL in the Packers’ Week 15 loss to the Denver Broncos and his absence has been notable, given the Packers’ defense has recorded just 1 sack for 0 yards since his injury. The team has suffered brutal back-to-back-to-back losses, including an overtime loss to the Chicago Bears and a loss to the Baltimore Ravens this past week which saw...

The end of the road has arrived for Rashan Gary in Green Bay. However many games are left in the Green Bay Packers’ 2025 season is exactly the number of remaining games in which Rashan Gary will be a Green Bay Packer. If, and almost certainly, when, Gary is released after this season, the Packers will clear just shy of $11M in cap space for 2026, avoiding paying Gary the $18M he is due in base salary and an additional $1.5M in other bonuses. As has been covered by plenty of other folks at this website, doing this is a...

As we do every week in this space, we take a look at the Packers passing game from the previous week. We got a little Clayton Tune near the end of Saturday’s game against the Baltimore Ravens, but Malik Willis played the majority of snaps, so that’s who we’re focusing on today.

Completing 85.7% of your passes and posting a QB Rating of 134.6 is tremendous work for QB2. And it’s not like it was all checkdowns or anything: as you can see from the chart, he was pushing the ball downfield. For the game, Willis had an ADOT (Average...

The time for the Green Bay Packers’ regular season finale on Sunday is now set, and they will take on the Minnesota Vikings at 12 Noon Central. That game means essentially nothing for either team, however, with the Packers locked into the #7 seed in the NFC playoffs and the Vikings eliminated from contention.

That should give the Packers a prime opportunity to manage some key players’ workloads, and in some cases to sit players who have been dealing with nagging injuries. Why play Josh Jacobs, for example, when he could barely make it through a few carries last Saturday...

According to the New York Times/The Athletic playoff simulator, there’s only a 60 percent chance of the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears getting a rubber match in Chicago for the wild card round, despite the Packers being locked into the NFC’s seventh seed and the Bears currently holding onto the NFC’s second seed.

Here’s how the second seed math works right now, according to The Athletic.

If the Bears beat the Detroit Lions on Sunday, Chicago will lock in the second seed. If they lose, the Bears only have a 13 percent chance of being the second seed because...

The NFL’s Week 18 slate is always funky because of the mix of teams that are playing for draft position and teams playing for divisions or seeding in the postseason. The Green Bay Packers are locked into the seventh seed of the NFC playoffs, so no matter what happens when the Packers take on the Minnesota Vikings in Week 18, Green Bay will be playing on the road against whoever the second-seeded team in the NFC is.

As of this second, the Chicago Bears are sitting in the second spot in the NFC playoffs. With that being said, there is...

Throughout the year, I’ve been keeping tabs on Rashan Gary’s production because, despite recording some clean-up sacks early in the season, his down-to-down rate of generating actual pressure has been terrible. Don’t believe me? Let’s take a look at some data for the Green Bay Packers pass-rusher.

Let’s start with this chart. The X axis measures how many pass-rush attempts players have posted in edge alignments (per NFL Pro) in the 2025 season. The Y axis is how many quick pressures (defined as pressures generated in three seconds or fewer, per NFL Pro).

Obviously, Gary sticks out like a sore...

Green Bay Packers quarterback Malik Willis has played great over the last two games, completing 27 of 32 passes for 409 yards and two touchdowns for a passer rating of 139.6, despite the team losing back-to-back games. This has led to some fans wondering what it would take for Willis to actually displace starting quarterback Jordan Love, who is currently dealing with a concussion.

On Monday, head coach Matt LaFleur shut down those questions as soon as he was asked about them.

Here’s what he said:

“Guys, I want to pump the brakes on all that stuff. I think...

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that “nothing has been decided” about whether the team will rest its starters in Week 18 against the Minnesota Vikings, despite the Packers having nothing to gain — in terms of playoff seeding — with a win in the final week of the regular season. When pressed about why, LaFleur stated, “There’s a lot of variables that get thrown into play.”

“You’re kind of limited, especially with our situation right now, with the number of injuries that occurred. Guys are going to have to play ball. So they better approach it in...
