Grueling Truth

● By Samuel Teets
The Green Bay Packers are one of the NFL’s premier teams historically and in the modern-era. Despite their prestigious place in the league’s hierarchy, the Packers and reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers haven’t made the Super Bowl in a decade. They’ve lost two consecutive Conference Championships and four in the past seven years. A loaded 2021 draft class might finally push Green Bay over the summit. Green Bay and general manager Brian Gutekunst shocked the NFL world last year by using their first-round pick on Utah St. quarterback Jordan Love. The move wasn’t well-received by Cheesehead nation. Love and Gutekunst’s other eight selections from last year combined for seven starts and 62 appearances. The Packers need more immediate production from this year’s class.
