Won't see many more blatant offensive passing interferences than this one by St. Brown

Green Bay Packers 2026 penalty numbers, specifically on all-important THIRD DOWN plays & in the FOURTH QTR of games
The #Packers lead the #NFL in 4TH qtr penalty per game avg, recording historically high numbers in this category
Compounding that, the @packers have off-the-charts numbers surrendering AUTOMATIC 1ST DOWNS via penalty on THIRD DOWN plays (& primarily in the 4th qtr)
None of this is news to Green Bay players/coaches or fans
Three games in particular this season (@Vikings @Lions & vs Cowboys) were beyond ridiculous w' officiating in the 4th qtr of those contests
There are many numbers I can detail going back two decades but ill use 2021/2025 five-yr data as comparison to highlight the statistical improbablity of the 2026 stats
Green Bay is surrendering 1.71 AUTOMATIC 1ST DOWNS per game on THIRD DOWN
To put that in perspective, over the past 5 seasons the next highest avg in this category is the 2023 Titans (0.94 per game) & the 2021 #Bills at 0.89 per game
GB is averaging almost DOUBLE per game of the next highest penalized team over past 5 seasons in this category
In the FOURTH QTR, Green Bay is surrendering 1.29 AUTOMATIC 1ST DOWNS via penalty in 2026
The next closest to that the past five seasons is the 2024 Commanders at 0.90 per 4th qtr
The bulk of Packers ROUGHING THE PASSER & UNNECESSARY ROUGHNESS & ILLEGAL CONTACT penalties have occurred in the 4th qtr (see clip #GBvsMIN Week 1 w' Shawn Hochuli)
For the record im not a Packers fan, just someone that studies data
But I watch every game & the officiating in some GB contests this season has been diabolical late
The general response is "just play better" so a bad call or calls have no impact on the final outcome
That sounds great & im sure every team would love to be ahead 50-0 in the 4th so an atrocious UNNECESSARY ROUGHNESS penalty has zero impact
But the fact is most games come down to the final 10 mins & if you're on the wrong end of bad calls in the 4th qtr & particularly on 3rd down, its near impossible to overcome
Its up to Matt LaFleur & Packers hierarchy to inform @NFLOfficiating & start calling out the one-sided numbers
The positive would be these numbers can't continue indefinitely & GB does have 6 more games at Lambeau Field, where they historically have received better treatment

Packers All-Pro safety Xavier McKinney unloads on the officiating. Have a listen. Says he’d rather get fined and try and help his team.

🚨RIDICULOUS🚨
THIS VIDEO COMPARES JORDAN LOVE’S INTENTIONAL GROUNDING PENALTY WITH A JARED GOFF THROW THAT WAS NOT FLAGGED.
#PACKERS FANS ARE ACCUSING THE REFS OF BIAS.
GOFF’S THROW SHOULD’VE BEEN FLAGGED. LOVE’S SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN.
THIS IS INSANE.

@NFL @NFLOfficiating let’s just go to flag football if everytime a qb gets touched it’s roughing the passer!

Goff's "non grounding" was far, far worse. This game brought to you by FanDuel

So the ref gets mad at the Packers defense on a phantom personal foul and holds it against the offense on the next drive on a critical 3rd down and doesn’t call the illegal contact on the Lions. Had Golden’s arm arm-barred for 5 yards.
Smh

This crew in the Packers Lions game needs to be investigated and suspended after this game.

NEW: Adam Benak tops the first installment of my freshman power rankings.
Who else cracked the top 25 first-year players in college hockey?

Through Week 5, Jordan Love is 1 of 2 QBs to throw for multiple TDs in every game this season (Brock Purdy)
He has done so while being last in Time To Throw, has the most quick pressures in the NFL, is #1 in QB Hits, has the most dropped passes, & a rushing game ranked 32 of 32
