Dontayvion Wicks has been printing free money for us this season, but following a 90-plus yard effort, it seems likely that his days of dominating are over.
Following the Green Bay Packers’ victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, there are many reasons to be happy. First and foremost, quarterback Jordan Love recorded his first 300-yard passing game, the first for the Packers since 2021, and the offensive passing game has looked strong for the third straight week.
In this game, every single important pass-catcher on Green Bay’s roster played a part. The team’s best overall skill player was Jayden Reed. Leading the team in receiving yards was Dontayvion Wicks. Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs both scored touchdowns. Luke Musgrave managed to catch four balls. Had Tucker Kraft not gone out of bounds, his 27-yard reception would have been good for a touchdown.
For the second half of the season, this is precisely the kind of performance that supporters of the Packers were hoping for. Although there is still much to improve, especially on the offensive line, the offense is progressing.
Injuries exposed some of Green Bay’s depth on defense. Jonathan Owens, who has skated by against Brett Rypien and Kenny Pickett in recent weeks, was unable to blend in with Justin Herbert of the Chargers. Darnell Savage and/or Rudy Ford should be able to get back on the field as soon as possible.
Regarding injuries, running backs Aaron Jones and Emanuel Wilson were both carted to the locker room on Sunday. APC’s Justis Mosqueda and Evan “Tex” Western provide you with the most recent information on their conditions.
