The Packers may have gotten a win over the Panthers in Week 8, but they were unable to exploit their weak rushing defense.

Lombardi Ave argues that the Green Bay Packers must prioritize acquiring interior offensive line help before the November 10 trade deadline rather than trading for a running back. Despite defeating the Carolina Panthers 27-19 on Thursday night, Green Bay managed only 66 rushing yards on 26 carries against Carolina's league-worst run defense, with Josh Jacobs gaining just 39 yards on 21 attempts.
The article notes that the Packers missed out on guard Quenton Nelson, who was traded by the Indianapolis Colts to the Seattle Seahawks for draft picks. Writer Scott Rogust suggests alternative trade targets to bolster Green Bay's run blocking, including Philadelphia Eagles guard Landon Dickerson, Ben Bredeson, Cesar Ruiz, and Jackson Powers-Johnson.
