The NFL's largest single-season rating decline in a leaked report
In short: Despite high home attendance and historic franchise milestones, the 2025 Green Bay Packers faced an internal crisis. A leaked report card from the NFL Players Association revealed a staggering drop in team ratings, highlighting deep-seated issues with coaching, player treatment, and equipment that overshadowed their on-field achievements.
The 2025 season was marked by extreme volatility for the Packers. While they achieved significant milestones—such as clinching three consecutive non-losing seasons and securing a third straight playoff berth—the internal health of the organization took a hit. Data from a disclosed NFL Players Association evaluation showed the club experienced an unprecedented annual drop in rankings, falling to 21st from 7th due to criteria including family care and coaching standards.
On the field, the season was defined by high-stakes drama and physical toll. The roster saw major shifts, including the trade of Kenny Clark to the Dallas Cowboys and the release of Jaire Alexander. While quarterback Jordan Love reached new heights—including a franchise record-tying 20 consecutive completions against the Steelers—the team suffered from significant injuries. Tight ends Tucker Kraft and Parsons both suffered torn ACLs during critical stretches, contributing to a late-season collapse where the Packers lost their final four games.
The season also featured historic firsts and bitter rivalries. The franchise hosted its first-ever NFL Draft at Lambeau Field and recorded its longest field goal in history (61 yards) against Arizona. However, these successes were tempered by a disappointing postseason exit: a one-and-done Wild Card loss to the Chicago Bears after blowing a 21–3 halftime lead. Despite failing to secure the NFC North title again, the squad ended as the NFC's #7 seed for a third straight year.
