GREEN BAY, Wis. – If you want some newfangled math, check out this one.
12 + 17 = 6.
The Green Bay Packers have hit their stride down the stretch, and it doesn’t take a 300-level college math professor to figure out why.
Over their last six games, the Packers lead the NFL with 34.0 points per game. Why? Because the red-zone offense has improved. And why has that happened? Because Davante Adams has spent a lot of red-zone time in the end zone. During that span, Adams leads the NFL with seven red-zone touchdowns.
“I don’t think anything specifically changed,” quarterback Aaron Rodgers said.
