Another road game, another good win for the New Orleans Saints. But two Drew Brees interceptions kept them scoreless until early in the second quarter. Here's the latest Saints vs. Packers recap with top performers, game stats, a standings update, and what's next for these two teams.
Score at the half is 14-7 Packers.
Green Bay Packers rookie running back Aaron Jones made life easy for Brett Hundley on the first drive of the quarterback's first National Football League start Sunday against the New Orleans Saints.
Brees completed a barrage of short passes that added up to 331 yards on 27-of-38 accuracy. Packers head coach Mike McCarthy will speak to the media Friday morning at 9:30 a.m. "But there's a little bit of resiliency that I'm proud of - especially in the second half of this game". "But we're striving to be that type of team", said Brees, who admitted his interceptions were just plain bad throws. "I think what I like is that we're encountering a lot of different situations and things in games and finding different ways to win".
Hundley was starting in place of the injured Aaron Rodgers, who is likely out for the season with a broken collarbone suffered in last week's 23-10 loss to the Vikings. Aaron Jones did the bulk of the rushing with 17 carries for 131 yards and the only other Green Bay Packers' touchdown in the game.
What does 4.0.0 feature and how to install it?
A week ahead of Nintendo's next big Switch game, Super Mario Odyssey , a big software update arrived to Nintendo Switch consoles. Not only does this ensure you receive the game the moment it comes out, but it also lets you check the prices ahead of release.
Green Bay answered on the ensuing possession.
Hundley finished 12 of 25 for 87 yards.
The dynamic running back duo of Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara was the best thing the Saints had going from start to finish in this one (Ingram finished with 105 rushing yards, one touchdown and 5 receiving yards; Kamara had 57 rushing yards and 50 receiving yards).
Their reward was not just their fourth win a row but also, according to some players, complementary pedicures for wearing different and slightly more uncomfortable cleats. Kamara was more involved in the passing/screen game, catching five passes on seven looks. "So, I just tried to go out, hey, I can get beat up for the punt return, but as far as offense, I came through for my team". "He made some big, big plays with his feet, and we'll grow from that". He joined Peyton Manning, Brett Favre and Tom Brady.
