Packers schedule release: 5 toughest games in 2022 season
Five toughest games on the Packers’ 2022 schedule.
The Green Bay Packers now know their 2022 schedule.
I attempted to predict every game on the schedule for the Packers this season, not an easy task.
When looking through the schedule, some games stand out. Today, we’ll rank Green Bay’s five toughest games in 2022.
This takes in a few factors. The biggest is the strength of the opponent, but timing and position on the schedule also plays a role.
Let’s look at the top five.
5. at Minnesota Vikings (Week 1)
The Packers have lost four of six games at the Minnesota Vikings’ U.S. Bank Stadium. One of their two victories came without any fans in attendance.
It’s not an easy place to play as a road team. No doubt about it.
In Week 1, it’s that bit harder. The stadium will be rocking in the first game of the season. And don’t forget that Minnesota has a new coaching staff, so there will be unscouted looks for Green Bay to worry about.
Another storyline will be Za’Darius Smith playing against the Packers. He will want to make an impact.
Divisional games are never easy. Especially on the road.
Green Bay’s season opener at Minnesota will be an incredibly tough game to win.
