Can the Packers qualify for the playoffs with their offensive struggle?

The Packers‘ season is almost over after losing their fourth straight game against the Bills this Sunday. Despite the solid effort from their defense, their offensive struggle continues to haunt them in big moments. Moreover, Rodgers himself hasn’t played well to give his team further support, particularly his lack of deep passes.

Currently, his yards per pass attempt is around 6.6, which is the lowest in his career; his offensive line is also not helping him enough. Meanwhile, the Packers are currently in the second position in the NFC North division behind the Vikings, despite losing 5 out of 8 games. If they want to qualify for the playoffs, they need to start winning games immediately. Their next opponent will be the Lions, one of the worst teams this season, in terms of win-loss record. Next Sunday, they need to win, which could shift their momentum this season.
