Nixon’s huge day came on his only kickoff return attempt of the game, as he let his only other opportunity go for a touchback. The Packers had planned to use Ramiz Ahmed as their kickoff specialist in this game, but Crosby had to perform those duties after Ahmed suffered a groin injury in warmups. All three of the Packers’ interceptions of Kirk Cousins came from the safety group, with Savage, Amos, and Ford each getting one and Savage taking his back for a 75-yard touchdown. Hollins recorded two hits, including one of the Packers’ two sacks, while Enagbare had two hits of his own on Cousins and Smith had one. McDuffie ended the game with four tackles on his 12 snaps plus a fifth on special teams. Slaton had four total tackles, including a massive TFL on the early goal-line stand, and he broke up two passes at the line of scrimmage, one that got tipped for an interception by Adrian Amos. He had two of the Packers’ three plays of 20-plus yards, that 21-yard score plus a 24-yard gain in the fourth quarter. He caught his only target for four yards, but it is his work in the run game that continues to stand out on film. They then brought on backups in place of Bakhtiari and Jenkins for the final two series when It was a quiet day for the Packers’ passing game in general, but Lazard had a typically-efficient day, catching five of six targets for 59 yards. He finished the day with just one reception for 11 yards on five targets, but seeing him play a mostly-full workload after missing two days of practice was an encouraging sign. One of the big reasons for the Packers’ victory on Sunday afternoon was its defensive line, a group that had just four players active after Dean Lowry was sent to injured reserve this week and Jonathan Ford remained a healthy scratch.

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Aaron Rodgers and the Packers suddenly are just a win away from an improbable playoff berth.

This marked the first time the Packers scored on an interception return and a kickoff return in the same game since a 31-23 victory over the St. The Vikings lost two of their starting offensive linemen to injuries in the first quarter. “I just felt like if we get one of those, we can win the last five, and 9-8 was going to get in. Nixon’s touchdown was the Packers’ first off a kickoff return since Randall Cobb’s franchise-record 108-yarder against New Orleans in 2011. “Just need to play better, that’s the bottom line.” Center Austin Schlottmann suffered a broken fibula and right tackle Brian O’Neill departed with a calf injury. The Packers converted each of Cousins’ turnovers into touchdowns. That kick gave Green Bay a 27-3 halftime lead. The Packers (8-8) will reach the playoffs if they beat the Detroit Lions at home in their regular-season finale. 1 in the league. “I think we’re just going out there, playing hard, trusting each other. Green Bay’s latest bit of good fortune came earlier Sunday when

The Green Bay Packers kept their playoff hopes alive for another week, trouncing the Minnesota Vikings 41-17 at home. The lopsided score doesn't do the.

In his chance to end Green Bay’s season, he put in one of his worst games of the year and saw his team slip out of the No 2 seed for the playoffs. They won’t be the pass-heavy offense of years past, but if Jones and Dillon can continue to pound the rock successfully they could cause some problems in the playoffs. This, coupled with Dillon’s hard-fought 41 yards on 12 carries in between the tackles, forced Minnesota’s offense to stay on the sideline as the Packers ground away at the opposing defense. The shift started when the Vikings had to settle for three points despite getting the ball at the one-yard line. But in this game, defensive coordinator Joe Barry and Alexander were able to shut him down and effectively stop the Vikings’ offense. From the start of the game, you could see that Alexander had gotten into Jefferson’s head after he copied the wide receiver’s signature Griddy celebration on a pass breakup.
