The Inexperienced Bay Packers reworked their protection after they acquired Micah Parsons, and one stat from their first sport of the season is an illustration of the kind of influence the star pass-rusher may have.
The Packers didn’t blitz as typically as common of their 27-13 win over the Detroit Lions in Week 1. The truth is, they blitzed on fewer than 10% of their defensive performs, which was one in every of their lowest single-game blitz charges within the final three seasons. Regardless of barely blitzing, the Packers managed to stress Lions quarterback Jared Goff on 37.2% of performs, which was proper according to their common price.
