- Jordan Love was a QB1 scorer in seven of his final eight games and averaged 21.2 fantasy points per game over his final 10 games, fifth most over that span.
- There were 159 passing plays last season in which Green Bay had all of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, and Jayden Reed on the field at the same time. On those plays, Watson led the team with a 25.9% target share and 2.11 yards per route run.

The Packers made a pronounced change to their offense midway through last season, and the results were night and day.
Over the first eight weeks of the season, Jordan Love averaged 9.3 air yards per attempt.
He completed 57.7% of his throws over that span. The Packers were 20th in points per drive and 23rd in yards per play over those eight weeks.
From Week 9 on, Love averaged 7.9 air yards per attempt.
He completed 68.7% of his throws during that run. The Packers were fifth in points per drive and fourth in yards per play.
Love’s deep target rate fell from 15.4% to 11.9%, but he was more successful on those deep shots when he took them.
There are volume concerns in this passing game, especially given all the mouths to feed at receiver.
From that Week 9 marker on, the Packers were 17th in neutral pass rate but were 2% over their expected pass rate.
It also remains to be seen if that spurt of offensive success will continue coming out of the offseason.
Still, the Packers had a sizeable run of very good offensive output last year and are only likely to get better given their youth at every position on offense.
