Packers play a clean game
This Packers team has got in its own way plenty this season in a myriad of different ways, but Sunday was the kind of mistake free game fans wanted to see, in all three phases.
Jeff Hafley’s defense will deservedly take the plaudits for dominating the game, but Green Bay’s offense was clean and crucially, took care of the football.
It was tough going at times against a stout Minnesota defense, but they scored a touchdown on the opening drive to give the Packers an early lead which they would never relinquish, and effectively bled the clock out late in the game.
