Green Bay Packers: Matthew Golden continued strong ascent in Week 2 victory over New York Jets
There was not a great deal to love offensively from the Green Bay Packers on Sunday afternoon. They failed to amass 200 total yards as a unit and undisciplined penalties plagued them (and the defense) for much of the day. Additionally, they lost two of their starters, right tackle Zach Bako-Bewele and wide receiver Jayden [...]

The Green Bay Packers are 1-1 on the season following their 20-17 overtime victory over the New York Jets on Sunday afternoon.

Jayden Reed gets encouraging Packers injury update after frightening exit

Green Bay Packers: Lukas Van Ness on breakout performance over Jets in Week 2 victory, “I’m drained”
Anyone who watched the Green Bay Packers play against the New York Jets on Sunday would say that the team was fortunate to win. This is not hyperbolic either. The Packers are the first team in NFL history to have less than 200 total yards on offense, have more than 100 penalty yards, and have [...]

Green Bay Packers: Matt LaFleur offers dire update on Zach Bako-Bewele injury after Week 2 win
The Green Bay Packers, somehow, got out of the Meadowlands with a 20-17 overtime victory over the New York Jets. It was far from a pretty game by the Packers, though.

The Green Bay Packers did not play a great game on Sunday. Nevertheless, they escaped the accursed Meadowlands with a 20-17 victory over the New York Jets in overtime.

Aaron Glenn makes “unbelievable” Jordan Love admission ahead of Packers Jets clash

Josh Jacobs’ Green Bay Packers situation takes another crazy turn after court ruling
The legal situation surrounding Josh Jacobs continues to develop as the parties remain at odds over whether discovery materials should remain sealed.

Packers’ Matt LaFLeur gets real on offensive line woes
The Packers’ fourth quarter against the Minnesota Vikings was an abject disaster.

Matt LaFleur gives Packers RB Marshawn Lloyd vote of confidence
The Packers need to figure out how to build a more balanced offensive attack, and quickly.

In Week 1, the Packers managed [...]
