They have one of the best quarterbacks in the league in Aaron Rodgers and a great head coach in Mike McCarthy. They also have a very strong defense. The Packers are favored to win today’s game.
Quarterback
The quarterback (QB) is the most important position on the field in American football. The quarterback is responsible for making quick decisions based on the defensive alignment, and often must act immediately after the snap of the ball. The quarterback must also have the arm strength to make long throws downfield. Although quarterbacks typically receive most of the credit (and blame) for their team’s successes or failures, they are only one of 11 players on offense who must work together seamlessly to be successful.
Running Back
The running back (RB) position has been a staple in football since the sport’s inception. A team’s running back corps is often the backbone of its offense, with the ability to grind out tough yards on the ground and break off long runs when given the opportunity. In recent years, the importance of the passing game has increased, and many teams now use a running back by committee approach, with multiple backs sharing carries. However, there are still a handful of runners who are able to shoulder the load for their team and provide consistent production week in and week out. Below is a list of the NFL’s top 10 running backs heading into the 2020 season.
Wide Receiver
The Green Bay Packers have one of the best wide receiver corps in the NFL. With Davante Adams, Geronimo Allison, Randall Cobb, and Jordy Nelson, the Packers have a deep and talented group of receivers. The Packers also have a good quarterback in Aaron Rodgers, who can make all the throws. The Packers offense should be able to put up a lot of points this season.

The typical running back is the team’s primary ball carrier. There are usually one or two running backs on the field for a given play, depending on the offensive formation. A running back may be a halfback or a fullback. A running back will sometimes be called a “feature back” if he is the team’s starting running back.
