Good, bad and ugly from Packers’ 18-17 win over Saints

The good, the bad and the ugly from the Packers’ comeback win over the Saints.

The Green Bay Packers gave up a punt return touchdown and eventually fell behind 17-0 through three quarters against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, but Jordan Love’s dramatics and an inspired effort from the Packers defense combined to create a memorable final 15 minutes in which Love led three straight scoring drives and the Packers escaped with an 18-17 victory at Lambeau Field.

The Packers are now 2-1 after blowing a 12-point lead last week in Atlanta and coming from behind to stun the Saints on Sunday.

The good, the bad and the ugly from the Packers’ 25-24 loss to the Falcons in Week 2.

The Green Bay Packers squandered a chance to start the 2023 season at 2-0 when Matt LaFleur’s team gave up a 12-point fourth-quarter lead and lost 25-24 to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

Instead of flying home to Green Bay with two impressive road victories, the Packers must regroup and flush a bad loss before next week’s home opener against the New Orleans Saints.

Good, Bad and Ugly: Gators Wire staff’s take on the Orange and Blue Game

Take a look at how the Gators Wire crew felt about the Orange and Blue game this year.

The 2023 edition of the University of Florida’s annual Orange and Blue game, the football program’s pinnacle of the spring practice season, lacked the fireworks on the field the Gator Nation has seen in the past but still provided an important window into the inner machinations of Billy Napier’s coaching philosophies.

Additionally, in recent year, the game has become an important recruiting tool, resulting the game being played on Thursday this year for the second straight spring.

Following the game, the three core members of the Gators Wire staff convened to give their good, bad and ugly takes from Thursday night’s affair. Here is how things broke down.

The Green Bay Packers escaped Hard Rock Stadium in Miami with a come-from-behind victory over the Dolphins on Christmas Day.

Good, Bad and Ugly: What positive takeaways are there from Florida’s loss?

The Gators Wire staff reacts to Florida’s complete collapse in the 2022 Las Vegas Bowl.

Florida football floundered in the 2022 edition of the Las Vegas Bowl against the Oregon State Beavers, who pummeled the Gators to the tune of a 30-3 defeat that nearly snapped the Orange and Blue’s nation-leading scoring streak. That run nearly came to an end until a late fourth-quarter field goal spared [autotag]Billy Napier[/autotag] from ignominy as he wraps up his debut campaign.

Make no mistake about it, this was a difficult game to watch for the Gator Nation as its beloved football team looked completely lost on offense while the defense was simply outmanned by the top-20-ranked Beavers. While many expected OSU to finish on top, few foresaw Florida’s impotence on offense.

The Gators Wire gang convened after the conclusion of the embarrassing postseason loss to give its collective takes on what they saw on the field Saturday afternoon. Take a look below at what each of us had to offer on the final game of Florida’s 2022 season.

Good, bad and ugly from Packers’ 40-33 loss to Eagles

Highlighting the good, the bad and the ugly from the Packers’ primetime loss to the Eagles in Week 12.

The Green Bay Packers saw their hopes of a miracle playoff run get trampled by Jalen Hurts, Miles Sanders and the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night at Lincoln Financial Field.

The Eagles rushed for 363 yards, scored 40 points and escaped several comeback attempts to get to 10-1. The loss left the Packers, now 4-8, to stagger through what’s left of a lost season.

Here’s the good, the bad and the ugly coming out of the Packers’ primetime loss in Philadelphia:

Good, Bad and Ugly: Gators Wire looks back on Florida’s loss to FSU

The Gators Wire crew looks back on last Friday’s tough loss to FSU.

Florida football finished the 2022 campaign with an even .500 record — same as last season — thanks to a loss on the road at the hands of the Florida State Seminoles, 45-38. The high-octane affair between two Sunshine State rivals was a thrilling one, but alas, the Gators were unable to keep up with their sister school from Tallahassee and lost for the first time in four tries against FSU.

Typically, the Gators Wire crew jumps on their Good, Bad and Ugly answers right after the conclusion of the game, but this week we allowed the loss to ruminate a little before giving our final takes of the regular season. Take a look below at how we felt about the disappointing loss.

Good, bad and ugly from Packers’ 27-17 loss to Titans

The Packers got two touchdowns from Christian Watson but also a forgettable performance from the offense and defense at different points of the game on Thursday night vs. the Titans.

With a chance to right the season and begin a legitimate push to the playoffs, the Green Bay Packers played one of their worst games of the season and lost 27-17 to the Tennessee Titans at Lambeau Field on Thursday night.

The Titans gained over 400 yards and never trailed, and the Packers’ late comeback attempt came up woefully short at a cold and lifeless Lambeau Field.

Here’s the good, the bad and the ugly from Thursday night’s loss to the Titans:

The Green Bay Packers had a chance to get their sinking season turned around on Sunday in Detroit, but a forgettable and disappointing performance from quarterback Aaron Rodgers ensured a fifth-straight loss and a 3-6 record through nine games.

This week, it’s only fitting this space is used on the 38-year-old quarterback.
