Packer Game Review

The Green Bay Packers absolutely took it to the Tennessee Titans with a 55-7 blowout at Lambeau Field on Sunday. Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw for 3 touchdowns while completing 27 of 38 passes for 342 yards. The Packers also got their running game going, as Rodgers ran for a touchdown as well. Ryan Grant had 20 carries for 80 yards and 2 touchdowns, while DuJuan Harris rushed for 29 yards on 8 carries and also found the end zone once. Green Bay's rushing touchdown totals went up from 5 touchdowns to 9 touchdowns. Tennessee had as bad of a game as you could have, being outscored 55-0 before scoring a  garbage touchdown with 1:39 left in the game. Quarterback Jake Locker completed 13 of 30 passes for 140 yards, 1 touchdown and 2 interceptions. One of the premier rushers in the game, Chris Johnson, was bottled up for just 28 yards on 11 carries for no touchdowns. Locker threw the only touchdown of the game for the Titans to leading receiver Kenny Britt, who had 2 catches for 41 yards and a touchdown. James Jones led the Green Bay with 7 catches for 100 yards and his league-leading 13th receiving touchdown of the year, his only receiving touchdown of the game. The Packers finish up their regular season next week in Minnesota, as they try to sweep the season series with the Vikings. Tennessee finishes their season up home against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
