But Rodgers wasn't the main problem. The Packers offense declined only slightly in 2008. The biggest problem is that the Packers went from the #6 defense in 2007 to the #22 defense in 2008. Rodgers' stats in 2008 were very similar to Favre's in 2007. How well the defense plays in 2023 will be as big a factor as how well Love plays.
