For the first time since 1991, the Packers didn't get a single start from Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers at quarterback in 2023. The thinking was that the Packers would take a step back with a win total of 7.5, as surely Jordan Love hadn't shown enough to expect he'd successfully carry on the legacy of MVP-level play from a Packers quarterback.

The problem is that no one told that to Love, who delivered a season that either lived up to or surpasses the first year each of those Green Bay legends had as starters, including a ridiculous eight-game run to close the season that featured a 70.2% completion rate along with 20 total touchdowns (18 passing, two rushing) against just one interception as the Packers finished 6-2 with wins over the Lions and Chiefs in that stretch. The good times didn't stop there, with the Packers hanging 48 points on the Cowboys in Dallas to advance to the divisional round, where they held a lead with less than two minutes left before the 49ers pulled off the comeback.

That run from Week 11 on has led to a lot of optimism for the Packers heading into 2024, and if Love continues that level of play he'll be in the MVP mix and the Packers just might be Super Bowl contenders. If however he falls back to earth a bit, it may fall on new defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley to finally get the Green Bay defense to live up to the potential it has on paper, which includes seven former first-round picks and two more potential starters found in the second round of this year's draft.
