GREEN BAY — The Packers’ offensive line problems became impossible to overlook Sunday, when Minnesota’s defense repeatedly reached Jordan Love and helped turn an early Green Bay lead into a loss. Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores blitzed Love on more than 80% of his dropbacks, producing 15 quarterback hits, four sacks and an interception. Green Bay’s interior line — guards Jacob Monk and Donovan Jennings and center Sean Rhyan — struggled to identify pressure, handle stunts and protect Love from unblocked rushers. The breakdown came against a Minnesota defense known for complex blitz packages. Flores has built a reputation for returning to the same matchup when he finds a blocker who cannot handle an assignment, and Minnesota repeatedly targeted Green Bay’s interior protection. Jennings’ starting role drew particular scrutiny. Anthony Belton and rookie Jager Burton had received more work during training camp, while veteran guard Aaron Banks remains sidelined by injury. Neither young option has established himself, but Green Bay’s performance Sunday underscored the urgency of finding a steadier solution at guard. Love still produced 387 passing yards and two touchdowns despite the relentless pressure. Christian Watson capitalized on Minnesota’s aggressive approach, catching six passes for 147 yards and two touchdowns. Matthew Golden and Tucker Kraft also contributed in the passing game. Green Bay’s defense delivered a strong performance for much of the afternoon. Keisean Nixon intercepted Minnesota quarterback Kyler Murray and made several important tackles, while Edgerrin Cooper affected the game both as a blitzer and in coverage. Lukas Van Ness supplied a needed pass rush. The Packers led 22-10 and appeared to have control after Murray left with a concussion following a hit by Javon Bullard. Bullard was penalized for unnecessary roughness on the play. Minnesota turned to Carson Wentz, who threw for 133 yards and three touchdowns while taking advantage of favorable field position. Green Bay was flagged 12 times for 98 yards, compared with three penalties for 15 yards by Minnesota. The disparity added to the Packers’ difficulty in a game where their offense was already operating under heavy pressure. Early in the fourth quarter, Trey Smack made a short field goal that could have extended Green Bay’s lead to eight points. A Dallas Turner offside penalty erased the result, and coach Matt LaFleur elected to go for the first down. Rather than use a pass or the Tucker Kraft-led quarterback sneak package the Packers had frequently used the previous season, Green Bay called for Love to run behind the struggling guards. Minnesota stopped the play, then drove for a tying score and took control from there. The Packers’ next opponent, the New York Jets, also use disguised pressure schemes and could test the same weakness. Green Bay will need improvement from its current guards, development from younger linemen or help from outside the roster if it is to protect Love and remain in the playoff race. The immediate concern is not only offensive efficiency. A quarterback absorbing this level of punishment over a full season risks both his availability and the Packers’ postseason prospects.
