    Jaire Alexander's big second quarter shifts the tide for Packers

    Banged-up line holds its ground: The Packers had to do a lot of moving and shaking over the course of 60 minutes on their offensive line. Already without veteran Billy Turner (knee), Green Bay slid starting left guard Elgton Jenkins to right tackle and started fourth-year veteran Lucas Patrick...

    Packers used no fans to their advantage in beating Vikings

    Adams talked about not knowing whether to get up and signal first down after a big catch because no one was there to watch it. Rodgers added how he usually reads the crowd noise for the first read on play results, good or bad, and that didn't exist. To roll up 522 yards of offense, convert...

    Davante Adams begins 2020 season in historic fashion

    "I saw Aaron move my way, so it was just about keeping it alive," Adams said. "Obviously, '12' saw an opening and he just threw a bullet over there, a dart, and it felt like it was 10 yards away because the ball got up on me so quick. I was able to get a little toe-tap action in the back and...

    Flying under the radar is nothing new for Packers

    Since everyone had the Packers pegged for a receiver, naturally GM Brian Gutekunst used the team's second-round pick to draft Boston College running back AJ Dillon last April. The addition of a bruising, power back like Dillon raised questions in the minds of some about where Jamaal Williams...

    Fuel for the fire? Packers' Smith Bros. have found plenty

    The two outside linebackers have given themselves a tough act to follow after becoming one of the franchise's best duos in their first season in Green Bay. Their 25½ combined sacks were the most by a pair of Packers pass rushers since sacks became an official statistic in 1982, and they're the...
