Jordan Love was one of the most efficient quarterbacks in the NFL in 2025 but didn't have the volume of other top QBs. Whoever is calling plays in 2026 has to find out if Love can shoulder a bigger burden and remain efficient. www.theleap.football/p/the-packer...

Here are all 8 roughing the passer penalties on the Packers this season. Tell me how many of these are legitimately good calls.

GB quick snaps this. They're trying to catch the Lions not noticing that's Golden in the backfield, but Detroit was on it from the jump. If they're running traditional mesh, Love probably works to the crosser that ends up wide open. Belton handled the Hutch spin nicely.

Packers call mesh rail on 4th-and-4 and when Love lets this go, he sees DJ Reed trying to fight through the wash to get to Golden, the designed call. Reed navigates it perfectly and makes a great open-field tackle. Pierre Strong is running WAO on the backside.

Josh Jacobs first 5 carries went for 8 total yards. His final 6 carries went for 26 yards including an 8 and 10-yard run. He looked noticeably more comfortable in the second half. If he just averages 4 YPC, he would be such a massive upgrade for this ground game.

Went back and charted every non-completion from Sunday. 1 miscommunication 6 pressures that directly impacted the throw 4 drops 2 inaccurate balls 3 plays on the ball by a DB 2 other The 2 others are Golden getting bumped off his route on a timing through and the other a non-DPI call.

And the real problem with not going to Zeitler on Sunday is if you do want to make a change now, there's not going to be a real practice before the next game. So he doesn't even get real reps with his teammates.

For all the mistakes, the drops, the missed field goals, and horrible officiating, this could have won the game. Packers get exactly what they want after hitting Jacobs on the out twice earlier in the game. Perfect throw.

Brian Branch makes a great play on an arm punt, but I would like to see a LITTLE more go-up-and-get-it from a 6'5 WR.

I mean ... come on man

This is an absurd throw with three Lions right in Love's face, and the DB has Golden's arm the whole way down the field.

This just has to be a catch.

This play set up the short FG miss from Trey Smack. Lions show a 6-man front, but both ends drop. Travis Glover thinks Belton is going to take the end man, so he shows on the inside shade, then works outside. Detroit fools them with the front.

Only because the Packers have a new kicker this year. If you combine McManus and Smack, they clear

Absurd defensive penalties helped 3 Lions RZ trips. They scored 10 points on those trips, and the non-scoring drive required a fourth-down stop. That includes the game-winning drive. There's just no way around mentioning the impact the refs had on the game.

I don't know if it will be with the Packers, but is Keisean Nixon keeps playing like this, he's going to get paid by someone this offseason. He's having his best year as a Packer. He's been legitimately good lately.

Will be able to give a good look at the All-22, but if the Packers just have a regular play-action fake (instead of the whirlybird jet motion) on the Hutch sack, they probably have a TD. Packers had Christian Watson streaking across the field to green grass on a shot play.

The Packers didn't play clean enough football. That's true, AND the officiating was a HUGE problem. We react live to that, Josh Jacobs' return, and more in a brutal 20-17 loss to Detroit. youtube.com/live/2jQtevw...

Just can’t do that

Evan Williams missed tackle at the LOS. He’s had HUGE chances to change the game today and has missed a couple big ones.

Start suspending these refs. This is absurd.

That’s fucking horrible. Brooks lands sideways. That’s unacceptable.

Packers might need a new kicker

Jordan Love is getting sold

Dan Campbell on tilt

DDS what a freaky play holy crap

Stop throwing the ball at the LOS when they aren’t covering your guys down the field.

Is that not the rip move non-hold?

That’s a bad call too!

Ridiculous grounding call. Then dropped explosive play. Two super neat through lines of the season colliding there.

Also 6’5 Christian Watson can’t get out-jumped at the catch point there. Get your hands up.

Drop an explosive. Arm punt INT. Cool man.

Jordan Love doesn’t deserve this.

WHAT

The force out rule was always completely ridiculous

Back-to-back awesome plays by Cisse!

GREAT play by Cisse

That’s not a bad call but Golden had his arm grabbed the whole way down the field and it wasn’t called. If you’re gonna call it, call it.

The NFL has an officiating problem. This is a pathetic joke.

Dude get outta here

WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT CALL

Jordan Love is playing SO much better than the scoreboard. Good god.

Tom Brady calling an obvious flag “a clean play.”

Golden HAS to be stronger at the catch point

The officials love to call some bullshit on the Packers in Detroit

That’s a play New York has to call down and say “you didn’t see the play.” That’s what LaFleur was trying to tell the official. He never saw ASB try to get up and run.

The ref 100% called that penalty because he got hit in his wittle belly

He got up and tried to run! What the hell

What is that spot??

McDuffie and Hopper are in hell with this play-action **taps sign** www.theleap.football/p/with-zaire...
