Midway through the season last year, the avalanche of negativity toward the Packers’ offense, defense, Jordan Love and even Matt LaFleur led me to start a weekly Packers Positives column that highlighted some thing to be excited about each week. We’re in a lot better place now as fans but there are still some under…
In a recent Athletic NFL podcast the Packers’ wide receiver corps was lamented as a weakness. This is probably a shock to dyed in the wool Packers fans who believe the team’s receivers, as a whole, are better than they’ve been in years.

Why didn’t they score more against Tampa?…
