Yes, the Green Bay Packers’ chances of clinching postseason play are extremely slim. But all is not lost as the 2018 season inches closer to the finish line.
While the Packers certainly have not met expectations so far, the areas for improvement have become much clearer. General Manager Brian Gutekunst will have plenty of options to re-shape the roster once again in his second offseason in charge, but his first duty is to evaluate his current 53-man squad and the many young players that are still developing. Valuable regular season game reps with starters can be afforded to these players if the playoffs become too far from the Packers’ grasp.
