Kick returner Keisean Nixon set the tone early for the Packers with a 94-yard return on the team’s first offensive drive. The Dolphins managed to keep the Packers to a field goal, but the home team was clearly rattled.

Rodgers had an under-par performance according to his own standards. The QB threw 238 passing yards with one touchdown. The Dolphins’ defense picked up one of his passes. But with three interceptions in a row in the second half, Tagovailoa handed a victory to the guests as a Christmas present.
