Packers 2023 schedule should ease franchise into life without Aaron Rodgers
The Green Bay Packers no longer have Aaron Rodgers under center, but this isn’t a team that is tanking. This organization has a lot of faith in Jordan Love, who was a first-round draft pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. The Packers also happen to have a decent amount of talent around him, and they don’t have the toughest schedule in the world. With all of that in mind, perhaps Green Bay will find a way to compete in the division. The Detroit Lions are favored to win the NFC North, but none of these teams are proven.

Green Bay Packers schedule this year
The Packers play nine games on the road this season, but five of those are against teams that had losing records last year. Green Bay will also feel decent about its shot at beating teams like Detroit, New York and Pittsburgh. The Packers should also be a tough team to play at home this year, even without Rodgers in the mix. The only game in which Green Bay will be a significant underdog is against Kansas City. So, if Love has a good year then this team could exceed expectations.
