FOXBORO— Just a week after holding Chicago Bears' quarterback Mitch Trubisky to 168 passing yards and one touchdown, the New England Patriots' defense surrendered five touchdowns to Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens.
Unfortunately for the Patriots, things won’t get any easier this week.
The next quarterback on the schedule: Green Bay Packers' reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers.
Believe it or not, Rodgers has a 1-2 record against the Patriots in his career. But those games were also against old friend Tom Brady, whom Rodgers just defeated last week in Tampa.
New England will travel to Green Bay on Sunday, and Bill Belichick spoke glowingly about the Packers quarterback, calling him a “great, great quarterback.
