Green Bay back to basics defensively

The Green Bay Packers sit at 3-0 on the young season, atop the NFC North Division, but there is still room for improvement if the team hopes to make a playoff run like last year. As impressive as the offense has been, led by quarterback Aaron Rodgers in MVP-caliber form, the Green and Gold have given up a lot of points. During Monday’s press conference, head coach Matt LaFleur said the team had at least 13 missed tackles against New Orleans. Most of that came off the shiftiness of running back Alvin Kamara. On his 52-yard touchdown reception in the third quarter, which tied the game, Kamara broke as many as six tackle attempts on one play. With a schedule that is road-heavy early on, cleaning up the basics is a must if the winning streak is to continue.
