Green Bay Packers Defense Analysis
The Green Bay Packers defense did just enough. Thankfully, the sun blinded the Chargers on a few big plays. Outside of a big run, the encouraging part was that the Packers had bottled up Austin Ekeler pretty well. Regardless, the box score doesn’t show truly how bad the Packers defense was.
For once, it wasn’t the Packers shooting themselves in the foot. Chargers left a lot of points off the board, but this is the NFL. Never apologize for a win and find ways to get a win.
The defense will get a rematch against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving day.
