Game Recap: An awful defensive showing leads to second straight loss

After an embarrassing 34-20 loss to Tampa Bay, it seems like the Packers are back to their old 2023 ways.

That's certainly not how I expected this game to go, but when I think about it, I really cannot be shocked. We talk week in and week out about how this Packers' defense continually gets gashed in the running game. Well, they held the Buccaneers to only 99 rushing yards. Great right? Not really. Instead of getting gashed by the run, the Packers decided to get completely carved up by Baker Mayfield for 381 yards passing and four touchdowns.
