Jordan Love has been struggling inside the pocket for the longest time this season. In the Green Bay Packers' close loss against the Denver Broncos, he threw an interception and could not get the necessary yardage for them to pull off the victory. Their next opponents come in the form of the Minnesota Vikings. The quarterback may have to outscore Justin Jefferson and Kirk Cousins in the match but that should be the least of his concerns. The Vikings' secondary should be the first that strikes fear into his heart when he lines up next week.

Jordan Love sits 29th among qualified quarterbacks in completion percentage when facing any sort of blitz defensive scheme, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. This is bad news for the Packers quarterback as the Vikings secondary blitzes 50 more times than any other squad in the league.

Matt LaFleur and the Packers' offensive line have some practice and re-evaluation to do. This is such that their quarterback does not struggle against Minnesota. They had a step in the right direction during their game against the Broncos. Not a single sack was given to the Denver secondary. This is what they should try to replicate, albeit with more intensity and strength in the trenches. Otherwise, Love may end up getting the wind knocked out of him multiple times while throwing bad passes.

The Packers are trying to get back to an even four-win and four-loss record. But, they need to win against Kirk Cousins, Justin Jefferson, and the Vikings' secondary first.
