1. Aaron Rodgers Is Having An MVP Campaign
Prior to the start of this game, the Packers faced a difficult situation that featured their top two wide receivers being ruled out to play.
Without Davante Adams or Allen Lazard in the lineup, it was up to Aaron Rodgers to elevate his game even more to get the job done. He managed to complete 27-of-33 (81.8%) pass attempts for 327 yards and four touchdowns without throwing a pick.
The connection Rodgers found with Robert Tonyan and Jamal Williams proved to be a major difference-maker in this game.
Tonyan accounted for six catches for 98 yards and an impressive three touchdown grabs— making him tied for the NFL lead in touchdown receptions through the initial quarter of the season. Meanwhile, Williams chipped in eight catches and 95 yards.
