The Green Bay Packers ' season opener exposed major issues up front after the team fell 39-22 to the Minnesota Vikings . The offensive line struggled to protect Jordan Love , giving up four sacks while recording a league low 9 percent pass block win rate. The constant pressure made life difficult for Love and left the Packers needing to find solutions along the line.

Sean Rhyan is taking a straightforward approach to the problems facing the Packers' offensive line. Before Green Bay 's Week 2 matchup with the New York Jets , the 25 year old starting center delivered a blunt message to his teammates, using some NSFW language to make clear what he expects from the group.

"F****** protect J-Love. F****** move the ball," remarked Rhyan during his media availability.

The Packers failing to protect Jordan Love in Week 1

Love managed to produce strong numbers despite spending much of the game under pressure, completing 21 of 42 attempts for 387 yards and two touchdowns. Still, the constant disruption eventually hurt the Packers when the game reached the fourth quarter.

A strip sack and a tipped pass that turned into an interception ended Green Bay's comeback hopes and pushed the team's losing streak to six games, including last season's playoff loss.

Green Bay could face another difficult challenge in fixing its protection issues this weekend. The New York Jets enter the matchup after a 23-10 win over the Tennessee Titans , bringing a strong defensive line into the contest. Their pass rush will test the Packers' protection, while offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich has suggested that Green Bay may make changes along the line as it searches for the right starting combination.

For Green Bay, the pressure is on to turn Rhyan's message into action as the Packers try to avoid falling to 0 and 2 and end their losing streak. The offense does not need to overcomplicate its approach, but protecting Love has to remain a central focus when the game begins.
