The Green Bay Packers ran, and ran some more, against the New Orleans Saints.
Nine players recorded a rushing attempt, and the team combined for 39 carries, 188 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. Josh Jacobs helped his team find the end zone on its first three drives, and Green Bay never looked back. The 34-0 romp of the Saints on Monday Night Football — the NFL's first shutout this season — officially clinched a playoff spot for the 11-4 Packers.

PLAYER OF THE GAME
In his first career start, Packers safety Zayne Anderson secured his first interception and forced an incompletion on 32 coverage snaps. He didn't allow a single catch and didn't make any negative plays in run defense. The 2021 undrafted free agent played a very clean game.
