New England is once again without A.J. Brown and will rely on Drake Maye to overcome their depleted wide receiver corps. Maye will have Mack Hollins back and Hunter Henry will play.
1st Quarter
5:24 — Maye with a deep pass intended for Kyle Williams is incomplete to end the drive.
Scoring Update: Packers 14 Patriots 0
7:59 — Love with a 5-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open Golden. Smack hits the extra point and the Patriots are down by two scores halfway through the first quarter.
9:15 — Christian Gonzalez looks like he had an interception, but he’s called for pass interference putting the Packers on the Patriots’ nine.
10:37 — Love with a 16-yard completion to Matthew Golden followed by a 49-yard completion to Golden. The Packers are moving down the field quickly.
12:25 — Maye is sacked by Isaiah McDuffie and the Patriots go 3-and-out quickly.
Score Update: Packers 7 Patriots 0
13:19 — 13 yard touchdown run by Jordan Love. Miserable opening for the Patriots who start the game with an illegal shift and an interception that turns into a score for Green Bay. Trey Smack gets the extra point.
14:14 — On the second play of the game, and his first pass of the game, Maye is easily intercepted by Xavier McKinney. The pass was intended for Mack Hollins. The interception puts the Packers at the 14 yard line.
The Packers win the toss and defer.
