GREEN BAY, Wis. The Green Bay Packers waited a long time to go to London. Coach Matt LaFleur wasnt thrilled about the trip to begin with and probably never wants to return.The Packers were stunned by the New York Giants on Sunday, 27-22. Green Bays supposedly powerful defense was routed during the second half and Aaron Rodgers had back-to-back pa ses deflected at the line in the final moments.Trailing 27-20 following Saquon Barkleys 2-yard touchdown run with 6 minutes remaining, the Packers embarked on a do-or-die final drive. Rodgers methodically drove the ball down the field, with completions of 14 and 5 yards to Robert Tonyan for a pair of first downs. Officially, on Julio Urias Jersey third-and-1 from the 6, Rodgers looked for Randall Cobb but the pa s hit off the helmet of Giants first-round pick Kayvon Thibodeaux. On fourth-and-1, blitzing Giants safety Xavier McKinney batted down Rodgers pa s to Allen Lazard.The Giants ran out as much of the clock as po sible, took a safety and survived a Hail Mary when Rodgers was pre sured immediately and drilled from behind to improve to 4-1. The Packers fell to 3-2, a stunning lo s in what amounted to a home game against a depleted opponent. The Packers struck first on a field goal by Mason Crosby and tacked on touchdown pa ses to Allen Lazard and Marcedes Lewis. They were master cla ses of execution. On the pa s to Lazard, Romeo Doubs delivered an expert block. On the touchdown to Lewis, fake handoffs to AJ Dillon and Christian Watson allowed Lewis to stand all alone in the end zone. That made it 17-3.What looked like a runaway turned into a disaster because Green Bays allegedly stellar defense couldnt stop a quarterback with a wounded ankle (Daniel Jones) who was without three of his best receivers (Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney and WanDale Robinson) Walker Buehler Jersey and even the indomitable running back Saquan Barkley for a po se sion. The Packers mostly kept Barkley under wraps but the focus on the running back turned Jones into a play-action and scrambling machine. Even with Barkley out with a shoulder injury, the Giants had momentum and Green Bays defense looked ga sed. On the drive that tied the game at 20 with 10:08 to play, Jones completed pa ses of 11 Pedro Baez Jersey yards to tight end Daniel Bellinger on third-and-4 and 5 yards to Darius Sills on third-and-3 to the 5. On second-and-goal at the 2, Gary Brightwell powered behind his offensive line for the touchdown. Scroll to ContinueThe Packers desperately needed something. Instead, they went three-and-out on offense and Keisean Nixon couldnt corral a muffed punt. With Green Bays defense reeling, the Giants drove 60 yards on six plays. Back in the game following his injury, a wide-open Barkley had a 41-yard catch-and-run to set up his wildcat touchdown run with 6:06 to go.Green Bay needed a touchdown but didnt get it. It was outscored 17-2 in the second half in a putrid all-around performance during the final 30 minutes.Game BallGiants quarterback Daniel Jones, not at his best because of an ankle injury, outplayed Aaron Rodgers in a huge upset. Jones finished 21-of-27 pa sing for 217 yards. He added 10 carries for 37 yards. He made a bunch of key plays as the Giants went 6-of-11 on third down against what had been the best third-down defense in the NFL.Questionable CallWith the Giants having just Kenta Maeda Jersey scored to tie the game at 20, the Packers took over with 10:08 remaining. If nothing else, they needed a few first downs to give their defense a break. Instead, Aaron Rodgers threw three consecutive incomplete pa ses to put Joe Barry’s downtrodden group right back on the field.The Big MomentWith the Packers on the ropes with 10 minutes remaining, Pat ODonnells punt was short and hit the Giants Jason Pinnock. Keisean Nixon had a chance to recover inside the Giants 40 but couldnt make the play and the ball dribbled out of bounds. The Giants took the ball and drove 60 yards for the winning touchdown. Noteworthy NumberWhen Saquon Barkley strolled in from the 2 for the go-ahead touchdown with 6:08 remaining, the Giants had run 32 plays to the Packers 10 in the second half. On that touchdown drive, Rasul Douglas was flagged or unnece sary roughne s. It was his third penalty of the game and the fourth on Green Bays secondary. Whats Next?After dealing with the challenges of a trip to London, theyll have to handle the challenges of turning down the post-London bye. The Packers will play right away with a home game against the Dylan Floro Jersey New York Jets at noon Sunday.Obviously, its a long season, LaFleur said earlier in the week in explaining the reason for the schedule. I think one factor I would say is having the third preseason game and then having that weekend off. I would say thats kind of a mini-bye right there and its fallen early in the season so you have to make a decision on what you think is best and we opted for a little bit later of a bye. Now I wasnt nece sarily anticipating it where we got it (in December), but it is what it is and well try to schedule it the best we can.
