The NFL Players Association's annual report cards are out, and the Green Bay Packers have taken quite a tumble. Dropping from seventh to 21st overall, this marks the steepest decline among all 32 teams. Let's break down where the Packers fell short and what it means for the team moving forward.
Key Grades Breakdown
- Treatment of Families: C+
- Home Game Field: C+
- Food/Dining Area: B+

The biggest drop came from the training room and training staff, both now in the bottom third of the NFL. It's also surprising to see Lambeau Field only earning a C+.
Offensive Coordinator Under Scrutiny
Adam Stenavich, the offensive coordinator, received a C grade. Previously the offensive line coach, Stenavich took over as OC in 2022.
His grade ties him for 26th among his peers, and he stands out as the only OC in the bottom 10 not replaced this offseason. Here's the list of those bottom 10:
- Kansas City Chiefs: C+
- New York Giants: C+
- Philadelphia Eagles: C+
- Green Bay Packers: C
- Tennessee Titans: C
- Atlanta Falcons: C-
- Detroit Lions: C-
- Cleveland Browns: D+
- Los Angeles Chargers: D-
- Las Vegas Raiders: F
Despite the pressure, Green Bay chose stability over change, even though the offense has only cracked the top 10 in total and scoring offense once under Stenavich's leadership. His role has been a hot topic, especially during a tough five-game losing streak.
The Play-Calling Conundrum
Stenavich doesn't call the plays-head coach Matt LaFleur handles that. LaFleur's B- grade isn't stellar either, which complicates the situation. Convincing a high-profile OC to join without play-calling duties would have been a challenge.
However, innovation-or the lack thereof-is a concern. The offensive line, Stenavich's old domain, regressed in 2025, adding to the criticism. His comments about Matthew Golden's postseason role didn't help, especially after Golden's standout performance in the wild-card loss to the Bears.
Looking Ahead
While no immediate changes are expected, Stenavich's support within the team seems shaky. How this dynamic evolves could be crucial for the Packers' future. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely as the next season unfolds.
