The Green Bay Packers dismantled the San Francisco 49ers 38-10 in Week 12 and head coach Matt LaFleur was beyond impressed. The 8-3 had impressive play everywhere, but especially from running back Josh Jacobs and safety Xavier McKinney. Both players made an immediate impact, that was needed in the 2024 NFC Divisional matchup. When Jacobs […]

The Green Bay Packers will be without two key defensive players in their Week 12 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

Alexander, who sustained a knee injury in October during the Packers’ victory over the Jacksonville […]

The Green Bay Packers survived a fourth quarter comeback by Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears to steal a win in Week 11. Chicago’s rookie passer orchestrated a seven-play, 42-yard drive in the final three minutes of the game that set the Bears up for a game-winning, 46-yard kick. But Williams’ heroics were ruined by […]

It doesn’t quite have the juice of a matchup between the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears, but the Packers have had quite a heated rivalry with the San Francisco 49ers since the two iconic NFL franchises first met in 1950. This is a rivalry with 73 total meetings, and the Packers boast a […]

The Green Bay Packers got another win over the Chicago Bears and in the NFL, and especially against a rival, you don’t apologize for that. Head coach Matt LaFleur was clear after the Week 11 win that he didn’t care if it was by one point or 100. “We’ll never apologize for winning. It wasn’t […]

The Green Bay Packers barely squeaked past the Chicago Bears in Week 11, as they needed a missed game-winning field goal from Cairo Santos as time expired in the fourth quarter to allow them to walk away with the win. Of course, the Packers made some plays themselves to ensure they’d win this game, with […]

The Green Bay Packers have been tormenting the Chicago Bears for decades. Going into the Week 11 game between the two ancient rivals at Soldier Field, the Packers had beaten the Bears 10 consecutive times. That losing streak grew to 11 as the Packers hung on for a 20-19 victory when Matt LaFleur’s team blocked […]

While fans of the Chicago Bears have undoubtedly turned on their own team over the past few weeks, when the Green Bay Packers come to Soldier Field on Sunday afternoon, the boo-birds will shift their focus to the players in Green and Yellow… at least out of the gate. That means banged-up Packers quarterback Jordan […]

Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers offense has been getting the headlines all season because it has been a roller-coaster affair. When Love looks good, the Packers are extremely explosive on offense with perhaps the best young core of weapons in the league. When he looks bad, though? Well, the Packers have had moments […]

The Green Bay Packers are 6-3, and all things considered, they’re having a pretty good season so far. The issue in Green Bay is that “pretty good” is only acceptable for so long. This is a fanbase that came into the 2024 NFL season expecting the Packers to be a Super Bowl contender, and so […]

Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst gave a major update on the status of running back MarShawn Lloyd.

The Green Bay Packers dropped to 6-3 in the 2024 NFL season following their loss to the division rival Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field on Sunday afternoon. A costly pick-six interception from quarterback Jordan Love proved especially disastrous for the Packers. On second-and-2 from their own 38-yard line, Love aimed for Josh Jacobs, but the […]

It’s the biggest game of the Week 9 NFL slate and there’s reason to believe that the winner of this initial matchup between the Detroit Lions (6-1) and Green Bay Packers (6-2) will go a long way toward determining who wins the NFC North. In 2024, the winner of the NFC North has a very […]

As the Green Bay Packers face the Detroit Lions Sunday, it will no doubt be a heated one as defensive back Xavier McKinney has added more fuel to the fire in the matchup. As people lock in their predictions for the Packers game against the Lions, one aspect of the contest should be true which […]

The Green Bay Packers survived a late Jacksonville Jaguars rally on Sunday afternoon to escape Duval county with a 30-27 win. The big story coming out of the game will likely be the apparent groin injury that knocked quarterback Jordan Love out of the game and forced early-season hero Malik Willis back into action. However, […]

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur shed some light on Robert Saleh’s new role with the team.

The Green Bay Packers need Jordan Love to become the Jordan Love of the end of the 2023 season in Week 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Simply put, it’s time for Love to put it all together. So far this season, he’s had one truly all-around game. That was in Week 6 against the Arizona […]

The Green Bay Packers are among the few teams in the NFL that could be described as one player away that would stand to benefit from a trade deadline deal. They’re well-documented as a young team, but that doesn’t mean they’re not serious contenders in the NFC and across the league. In a crowded and […]

The Green Bay Packers got Christian Watson back in the lineup on Sunday after he missed one game with an ankle sprain, and the offense was humming.

Heading into Week 5 down Romeo Doubs, Jaire Alexander, Christian Watson, and Devonte Wyatt, Matt LaFleur and the Green Bay Packers knew that they would need to find some big plays from all over their roster, as Jordan Love, Jayden Reed, and Josh Jacobs couldn’t do it all on their own. Fortunately, plenty of Packers […]

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur doesn’t anticipate having the same problem with wide receiver Romeo Doubs in Week 6, per NFL insider Ian Rapoport.

Jordan Love had to overcome some adversity when the Green Bay Packers faced the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5, as he threw a bad pass that ended up turning into a pick-six. That didn’t affect Love, as he threw two touchdowns after that and led the Packers to a win. After the game, head […]

It was a frustrating game for Green Bay coach Matt LaFleur, who was penalized for unsportsmanlike […]

The Green Bay Packers played two different games when they hosted the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4, and while they dominated the game in the second half, they could not overcome the visitors because they built up too much of an advantage in the first half.

When the Green Bay Packers traded a seventh-round draft pick to the Tennessee Titans for Malik Willis, no one could have predicted what was to come.

With franchise quarterback Jordan Love watching from the sideline for the second straight game, the Packers relied on defense and a dominant rushing attack to score a win over the still-winless Tennessee Titans to improve their 2024 record to 2-1. The win in Tennessee was a homecoming of sorts for Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, who […]

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love’s MCL sprain timetable for a return was originally three to six weeks.
