Offensive line: B-

The Packers’ O-line had some poor plays, but overall they had a decent game.

Against Washington, they gave up four sacks, totaling 25 yards lost. Some of this can be attributed to Rodgers’ lack of mobility, while some of it could be due to the receivers not getting open and Rodgers having nowhere to go with the ball.

The right side of the line is the big concern for the Packers. After right tackle Bryan Bulaga left with an injury, Jason Spriggs came in to fill his role. Spriggs struggled on a number of plays. He either allowed the pass rusher to run right by him, or he was knocked on his heels from a bull-rush.

At right guard, Justin McCray continued with his inconsistent play and was eventually benched. The Packers tried Byron Bell and Lucas Patrick at right guard but were unable to find a solution.

However, even with the issues on the right side of the line, the Packers offensive line was able to be productive. They kept Rodgers unharmed for the most part. He often had ample time to find someone open and a nice pocket to throw from.
