The Green Bay Packers defeated the Carolina Panthers on Sunday by a slim margin of 33-30.The Packers defense was still having trouble, but the offense was thriving thanks to another outstanding effort from Jordan Love and the addition of a healthy Aaron Jones for the first time this season.

The Packers were efficient on offense in the first half, scoring on their first four possessions to build a comfortable 23-10 lead by halftime. That should be enough of a cushion for the defense, especially against a rookie quarterback who came into the game with the second to worst QBR in the NFL behind only Zach Wilson of the New York Jets, but instead Joe Barry’s unit allowed Bryce Young to have a career Young finished the day connecting on 23-of-35 of his throws for 312 yards and two touchdowns.

Even after Love and company put together an impressive drive around the two-minute mark that resulted in what ended up being the game-winning field goal, the Panthers offense came close to tying it up and forcing overtime.

Young completed a 22-yard pass to Chark on the sideline to stop the clock and then threw over the middle to Thielen for 22 yards. But the Panthers, without any timeouts, were unable to spike the ball before time expired.Simply put, the Carolina Panthers hadn’t scored 30 points all season, and only scored more than 20 points in three of their games heading into the matchup with the Packers.
