The Green Bay Packers finished tenth in the NFL in sack percentage and 14th in the NFL in pressure percentage in 2023. They were a unit that consistently got after the quarterback, and when they did, they brought him down.
Defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt provided his scouting report for Brock Purdy ahead of Saturday’s game:
“When D-linemen just get pressure into him, he’s always throwing off or it’s behind them or it’s overthrown or short ... when you get pressure on him, it’s a guarantee we’ll get a turnover.”
Lamar Jackson was the only quarterback with a higher yards per attempt and passer rating than Purdy this year when facing pressure, per PFF.
