Christian Watson's performance in the game against Pittsburgh has been under scrutiny, with concerns raised about his connection with quarterback Jordan Love. Watson made impressive catches but also had a bad drop, and his low catch rate has been highlighted. Love's struggles when targeting Watson have been evident, with four interceptions this season. Despite playing 77% of the snaps, Watson was held to 23 yards on six targets, indicating a lack of chemistry with Love. The tandem was expected to power Green Bay's passing game but has fallen short, leaving much to be desired. The run defense also struggled in the game.
