Aaron Rodgers claims he’s ‘not worried’ about this Packers squad
The Green Bay Packers haven’t looked anywhere near the part of a team that is ready to compete for the Super Bowl.
Instead, the Packers have stumbled out the gate through the first seven weeks, holding a 3-4 record. Green Bay is coming off a disappointing road loss to the Washington Commanders that saw them fall to a third straight defeat.

Despite those circumstances, star quarterback Aaron Rodgers voiced that he believes the team can turn it around.
“You’re god damn right it does,” Rodgers said when asked if it seems plausible for the Packers to still make the playoffs via ESPN. “I’m not worried about this squad. In fact, this might be the best thing for us. This week, nobody’s going to give us a chance, going to Buffalo on ‘Sunday Night Football,’ with a chance to get exposed. Shoot, this might be the best thing for us.”
The Packers have struggled to find any consistency offensively, especially after losing their top two passing game options this past offseason. Rodgers has tried to piece together dependable offensive production but has experienced plenty of difficulties.

The 38-year-old ranks 10th with 1,597 passing yards and tied for sixth with 11 touchdown passes, but sits 26th with a 40.5 quarterback rating. The lack of an explosive playmaker in the passing game has significantly limited the Packers’ offensive capability.
As Rodgers stated, the Packers have a primetime game next Sunday night against the Buffalo Bills that will showcase where they are at this point in this season.
