Green Bay offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich enters his third season as the team’s OC. After finishing 17th in offensive yardage in 2022 — Aaron Rodgers’ final season with the Packers — the team gained the 11th most yards in Jordan Love’s first year as starter in 2023. They were 12th in points per game thanks to Love’s highly efficient play in November and December, and only five NFL teams had a better giveaway differential than Green Bay.
The Packers ranked tenth in pass rate over expected in 2023, proving to be one of the league’s most balanced teams in neutral game script (when the game was within seven points either way). Stenavich used three-wideout sets on 49 percent of the team’s drop backs — the 16th highest rate. He deployed two tight end sets at the league’s third highest rate.
The Packers under Stenavich have done what good teams do: Use motion at the snap at a high rate. Last year, only the 49ers, Rams, and Dolphins used at-the-snap motion more often than the Packers.

For the season’s first ten weeks, Love’s stats — both traditional and peripheral — were underwhelming at best. He was 20th in drop back success rate — trailing quarterback luminaries such as Desmond Ridder and Mac Jones — and 14th in adjusted EPA per attempt, a tick below Russell Wilson. Love’s adjusted…
