The Green Bay Packers entered the bye week after converting only 16 of 34 red-zone trips into touchdowns during the first nine games of 2024 — a conversion rate that ranked 29th out of 32 NFL teams to start the season.
The first test coming out the bye for Matt LaFleur and Jordan Love?
The Chicago Bears’ top-ranked red zone defense.
Through 10 weeks, the Bears have allowed only 10 touchdowns on 27 trips into their red zone. The 10 red-zone touchdowns are the second fewest in the NFL, and Chicago’s defense is one of only two (Los Angeles Chargers) with a touchdown conversion rate inside the red zone under 40 percent this season.
