The Green Bay Packers suffered a humiliating 35-14 blowout loss to the Atlanta Falcons at Lambeau Field on Thursday night, snapping a 13-game winning streak in home openers. Home fans even booed the offense off the field at halftime as Green Bay struggled to establish any offensive traction. Beyond the lopsided score, a terrifying trend regarding Green Bay's pass protection has officially reached crisis levels.
According to NFL analyst Mina Kimes, citing NextGenStats, the Falcons defense recorded 15 quick pressures against Green Bay. That stat stands as the second-highest total recorded by any defense in a single game this season. The only game featuring more quick pressures? Green Bay's Week 1 defeat against the Minnesota Vikings, when Minnesota generated 17 quick pressures against the Packers.
