Packers look to right ship against Rams

The Green Bay Packers will need to get out of their offensive funk if they want to get their third win of the year against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.

 

The Packers' offense barely reached the century mark in first-half yardage for the second week in their 24-10 loss last week against the Minnesota Vikings, failing to pick up a first down until four minutes left in the second half. They would pick up five first downs on their lone scoring drive, ending with a 30-yard field goal by Anders Carlson, only made possible because of a Vikings penalty. The Packers were lucky to only be down by seven at the break after Kirk Cousins engineered two scoring drives, including a touchdown run by Cam Akers. The Vikings continued their dominance in the third quarter, with Cousins throwing two touchdown passes in two minutes, including one that came on the heels of a Jordan Love interception.  A one-yard touchdown grab by Romeo Doubs capped off the scoring for the game despite the Packers having the ball inside the Vikings' 25-yard line twice in the fourth quarter. 

 

The Rams have dropped three of their last four games, including a 43-20 loss to Dallas in their last game. The Packers will likely face Brett Rypien behind center after Matt Stafford sprained his thumb in the Cowboys' loss. A Rams win would break a three-game losing streak at Lambeau Field, which dates back to 2021.

 

Kickoff is set for noon.
