Sad news:Packers’ Late-Season Surge Falls Short of Super Bowl Due to Missed Kick and Interception…
The Green Bay Packers made a strong push at the end of the season, coming close to the NFC Championship Game, but a missed field goal and a late interception ended their Super Bowl hopes.
Despite this, there’s significant optimism for the team and its young offense, led by quarterback Jordan Love, to potentially reach the playoffs again. However, the player blamed for the Packers’ postseason exit might not be around next season.
David Kenyon of Bleacher Report identified kicker Anders Carlson as the “best player” on Green Bay’s roster who might be cut before the regular season starts in early September.
“Anders Carlson struggled in late 2023, missing kicks in nine of the last 12 games,” Kenyon wrote. “Most concerning were his six missed extra points during that period. This offseason, the Packers signed Greg Joseph and Jack Podlesny to compete with Carlson.”
