As long as key players within the Packers offense can stay healthy, there’s no reason they can’t contend in 2018. The key ingredient will be Aaron Rodgers, but he will need help from surrounding veterans and a young defense.

Green Bay’s offense is looking somewhat unpredictable for this season. After signing Jimmy Graham and Marcedes Lewis we can fully expect to see more multiple tight end sets. And with no Jordy Nelson lining up at receiver, an unproven asset will have to emerge. The Packers will be leaning on three ball carriers to tote the rock on a rotational basis. Who is going to emerge as the featured back will be an intriguing story line as we near training camp.

Green Bay’s offense looks like an unsorted puzzle, but the pieces are laid out on the table ready to become a masterpiece. Rodgers’ hasn’t had this deep of an offense since 2011 and the Packers defense is bringing a new attitude under Mike Pettine.

Stats will forever be the greatest measuring stick in sports and for the first time in a long time, we don’t know what to expect from the Packers. I will do my best to predict what numbers will be produced from Green Bay’s offensive unit.

The Packers will rely heavily on their backs this year as runners and pass catchers. Davante Adams finally reaches 1,000 yards receiving and Jimmy Graham has a solid year. J’Mon Moore is the only rookie receiver that makes a legitimate impact. Geronimo Allison has a couple breakout games that earns him another contract. Feel free to weigh in with a comment below.
