Capping off week 15 of the NFL season. We have the Green Bay Packers taking on the Los Angeles Rams in Lambeau Field, to which it will be a cold winter game. With the Packers still in the hunt for a playoff spot and Baker Mayfield getting more first team reps with the offense, this game could come down to the wire and be a good one to cap off the week. Let’s go through each half of football and give my overall thoughts of the game.
In the first quarter it was a slow game as the Packers drove down the field and settled for a field goal but Aaron Rodgers throwing a pick didn’t help Green Bay’s offense. The Rams offense was nonexistent in the first quarter with the Rams struggling to get the running game going and Baker Mayfield looking rushed in the pocket. In the second quarter the Rams managed to get a field goal early in the quarter. For the rest of the second half, the Rams only scored a field goal as the Packers ran in a touchdown to take a 10-6 lead going into half time.
In the second half, the Packers came out swinging as they scored two touchdowns with their star running backs, Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon in the third quarter. With Green Bay taking a double digit lead, this gave them the room to play a prevent defense, and really hone in on Baker Mayfield and the Rams passing game, Baker and the Rams offensive really struggled in this game as they only had 156 total yards of offense in the entire game.
Overall, my prediction was very close as I predicted the Packers to win, soundingly and that’s what they did, the Packers keep their playoff hopes alive as they advance to 6-8 as the Los Angeles Rams fall to a egregious 4-10, Green Bay wins 24-12.
