It’s Christmas Day and the Green Bay Packers have to feel great about the chance to sit at home and enjoy it with their families. We can say the same thing here at PackersRoundtable, but the NFL is a never-ending circus, isn’t it?

It demands content. That’s the reason there are three games on today, and there’s, frankly, going to be some great hatewatching opportunities for fans of the Pack.

The Dallas Cowboys play the Washington Commanders in a game that most Packers fans will absolutely be rooting for Washington in. The Detroit Lions will play the Minnesota Vikings in a game that hopefully ends in a tie, so no one wins. Lastly, the Denver Broncos will play the Kansas City Chiefs.

Last season, that would have been an epic game. This season, with Patrick Mahomes out with a torn ACL, it’s going to be a matchup between Bo Nix and former seventh-round pick Chris Oladokun (who?). That might be a decent game to fall asleep to.

Speaking of a demand for content, we here at PackersRoundtable know that our readers are voracious and they can never get too much analysis on their favorite team in green and gold.

For now, though, let’s have some fun. If we could hand out Christmas gifts, here’s what we’d give to some of your favorite Packers on this 2025 roster.

Jordan Love: 

If we could, we’d give Love a Pro Bowl appearance. He hasn’t gotten one yet in his career, but he’s played great in 2025. He’s thrown for 3,381 yards and 23 touchdowns compared to six interceptions.

Matthew Stafford, Dak Prescott and Sam Darnold are the three Pro Bowl quarterbacks for 2025. Stafford and Prescott are legit, but Love is a better quarterback than Darnold is.

Micah Parsons and Tucker Kraft:

The Packers will finish this season without their best defensive player in Micah Parsons and arguably their best offensive player in tight end Tucker Kraft. Both were lost in 2025 to torn ACLs, so if we could, we’d gift them ours so we could see them play again this season.

While we’re at it, Devonte Wyatt can have one as well.

Xavier McKinney:

Xavier McKinney is one heck of a safety. So much so that teams are straight-up avoiding throwing it deep on him when they can. He has dropped some opportunities this season, though, and his two interceptions pale in comparison to the eight he had last season.

We’d gift him a few more.

Matt LaFleur:

We’d gift Matt LaFleur a new special teams coordinator, or at least the ability to fire the one he currently has. Nothing else should be said about this topic, because this is a day for family, after all.
