The Green Bay Packers are 3-1-1 through five games in the 2025 NFL regular season and after taking down the Cincinnati Bengals at home last Sunday. They have gotten a lift from their timely scoring in the fourth quarter to ice games in their favor.
In fact, Green Bay is averaging 10.8 in the fourth quarter this season. Only the Detroit Lions, whom the Packers defeated in Week 1, are better in that department with an average of 10.8 points in the final period.
Green Bay’s offense delivering when it matters the most in games has been a big reason for the team’s success, with Jordan Love orchestrating the Packers’ attack. That is not to say that the Packers’ offense is now in its optimal form, but consistently producing in the clutch has definitely been a big help for the team.

4It has been a rollercoaster ride for the Packers’ offense this season, but all things considered, the team has delivered on that side of the field – especially in the clutch.
That was the case anew for Green Bay in Week 6’s victory against the Bengals, where Love led the Packers to a seven-play drive that was punctuated by an insurance goal by new kicker Lucas Havrisik to put the game away.
“It’s very crucial,” Love said (h/t Mike Spofford of the Packers’ official website ). “Those are the moments when you’ve got to be at your best. It’s a tight game, getting into the fourth quarter. You’ve got to find ways to go execute and stay on the field and put up points.
“It’s been huge for our offense to go out there and answer the call. That’s what you plan for as an offense. We do all the work in different two-minute situations for OTAs and training camp, to be ready for those moments. It’s nice we’ve been able to succeed.”
Still, keeping the offense going not just in the fourth quarter but in the entire game is a much bigger goal for Green Bay, which has the Arizona Cardinals up next this Sunday.
