Is it time to press the panic button for the Green Bay Packers?
Most people would say no, that one loss isn’t anything to be worried about in the first three weeks of the season, but the injuries to the Packers’ offensive line are concerning, to say the least.
Fans were frustrated to see the Cleveland Browns’ defense sack Jordan Love five times in Week 3, and he was under duress all game.
Granted, the Browns’ defense is among the best in the league, but considering that they didn’t allow the Detroit Lions to sack him in Week 1 when fully healthy, this was a red flag, at the very least.
Reporter Nathan Marzion pointed out on X that the Packers’ offensive line had a pass-blocking grade of 15.5, which was the lowest for any team in four seasons.
The Packers as a team had a 15.5 PFF pass blocking grade on Sunday, the lowest for any team in any game since 2021.
Since PFF started collecting data in 2006, the Packers had previously never had a game with a pass block grade lower than 39.
A historically bad performance.

He also mentioned that this was the worst game the Packers’ offensive line has put together since PFF started grading offensive lines, an indication that something went terribly wrong.
Zach Tom and Aaron Banks’ injuries were felt in a big way during this game, as their backups weren’t able to do the job nearly as well as the Packers would like.
Better days are hopefully ahead, but if they don’t get healthier soon, things could continue to trend downwards for this organization.
Love has proven to be a great quarterback when he has time, but as he showcased in Week 3, that confidence quickly goes away when a quarterback is under duress for an entire game.
