The Green Bay Packers put on a show on almost every aspect of their Monday night’s 34-0 win over the New Orleans Saints at Lambeau Field. As the final score implies, the Packers dominated the Saints from start to finish and on both ends of the field. In fact, the Packers were so dominant, they managed to complete a feat no team ever in the history of the NFL has ever done in league history.

The Green Bay Packers showed no mercy in Week 16
Jordan Love passed for just 182 yards and a touchdown on 16-of-28 completions but he avoided turning the ball over. He was also well-protected with zero sacks taken, as well as Malik Willis, who subbed for Love in the blowout.
Kicker Brandon McManus instilled more confidence in the Packers’ special teams unit by going 2-for-2 on his field goal tries and 4-for-4 on extra-point chances in the Saints game. Defensively, Green Bay showed no mercy on New Orleans, which coughed up just 196 total yards to 496 by Green Bay.
Although they were facing just the lowly Saints, the Packers were not going to take anything for granted, as a win would guarantee them a spot in the NFL playoffs.
Green Bay can continue its winning ways in Week 17 versus the Minnesota Vikings in Minneapolis.
