The Green Bay Packers won a matchup of NFC hopefuls on Sunday with a decisive 36-28 defeat of the Los Angeles Rams.
In doing so, they sent the reeling Rams to a third straight loss, further dampening the Super Bowl hopes that were bolstered by a 7-1 start in Los Angeles.
Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers led the effort in his third game back from a bout with COVID-19 as Green Bay improved to 9-3. The reigning league MVP completed 28 of 45 passes on the day for 307 yards without a turnover.
