Monday night’s 35-17 victory over the Detroit Lions provided a nice bounce-back win for the Green Bay Packers, a team that showed few signs of mental or physical fatigue from a 35-point loss to the New Orleans Saints in Week 1.
The Packers’ offense had no trouble moving the ball against the Lions, and the defense also turned in a much better performance in the second half. Aaron Rodgers looked like, well, Aaron Rodgers and the defense held the Lions to zero points after halftime.
The Packers saw some great performances coming out of their first win of the 2021 season, so let’s take a moment to highlight a few standouts.
