No, Pack, no: Missing Micah Parsons, Green Bay ties grim NFL record -- and may currently be NFC's worst team

Green Bay is enduring a historic six-game skid, marking their most extensive run of consecutive defeats since the era before Brett Favre in the early 1990s. The slide commenced during Week 15 of 2025 in Denver, where star pass rusher Micah Parsons suffered a torn ACL in the third period as the Packers relinquished a nine-point advantage.

A week later in Chicago, Green Bay surrendered a 10-point cushion inside regulation's closing two minutes before falling in overtime on a 46-yard Caleb Williams touchdown strike to DJ Moore. That pattern extended into the 2025 postseason, where the franchise suffered its worst playoff collapse by surrendering an 18-point second-half margin—and an 11-point edge with under five minutes left—before Week 1 of 2026 saw them squander a 12-point second-half lead by being blanked 22-0 in the fourth quarter in Minnesota to lose by 17.

By dropping four straight contests despite possessing multi-possession leads after halftime, the Packers have matched an NFL record previously established by the 2000 San Diego Chargers, a 1-15 squad that featured Ryan Leaf at quarterback during three of those meltdowns. Under head coach Matt LaFleur, Green Bay had compiled a 63-4 mark in its prior 67 outings when holding multi-score advantages in the second half.

Instead, consecutive defeats featuring blown double-digit cushions over the final five minutes—both coming against Chicago—have amplified pressure on LaFleur's job security.
