The Packers are hoping to bounce back from a lo s to the Falcons in their Week 3 battle with the Saints.However, Green Bay must do so despite being significantly shorthanded for the contest.The Packers will be without five regular starters for their matchup with the Saints. That includes four on the offensive side of the ball, including the team's top two offensive linemen.As a result, Green Bay will be leaning on Jordan Love more than usual to carry the offense to a victory. The Packers will also be looking on their secondary depth to replace their top cornerback in a tough matchup against Chris Olave, Michael Thomas and Rasheed Shaheed.Just how bad is the Packers' injury report for Week 3?

Dillon and a young receiving corps to step up and replace the skill position weapons while a couple of recent draft picks Rasheed Walker and Royce Newman figure to fill in for the blockers.The Saints boast a great defense, so Jordan Love will need to bring his A-game to elevate the Packers in wake of these injuries. Suffice to say that will be a great test for the first-year starter.If the Royce O'Neale Jersey offensive injuries weren't bad enough, the Packers will also be without their top cornerback Alexander.
