It was another beautiful weekend for the Aaron Rodgers-led Green Bay Packers and their massive fanbase. The Wisconsin-based outfit registered their third consecutive win of the 2020 NFL season.
They comfortably outplayed the reigning NFC South champions, New Orleans Saints, by a 30-37 scoreline at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on Sunday night.
The Packers were without their star wide receiver Davante Adams, who was out with a hamstring concern. However, Head Coach Matt LaFleur utilized the likes of Allen Lazard, Aaron Jones, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling to terrorize the Saints defense.
