The Green Bay Packers produced their most explosive attacking display of the season on Sunday, beating the New England Patriots 45-27 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough. Quarterback Jordan Love threw for 372 yards and three touchdowns, and the Packers forced four turnovers to improve to 6-3.

Love completed 23 of 29 passes before leaving the game in the fourth quarter with the result settled. His first touchdown pass of the day, a five-yard throw to Matthew Golden, was the 100th of his career. He also opened the scoring himself with a 13-yard touchdown run, and later added a touchdown pass to Savion Williams.

The story of the game was Green Bay's wide receiver pair. Golden finished with 10 catches for 164 yards and a touchdown, including seven catches for 150 yards in the first half alone. Christian Watson added seven catches for 171 yards and a touchdown in the second half. Both players set career highs for receiving yards in a single game, and it was only the fourth time in Packers history that two wide receivers have each passed 150 yards in the same game.

Green Bay took control from the very first play. Safety Xavier McKinney intercepted Drake Maye's opening pass and returned it to the New England 14-yard line, and Love ran in the touchdown two plays later. Golden's touchdown made it 14-0, and although Rhamondre Stevenson pulled one back for the Patriots with a 30-yard touchdown catch, the Packers led 24-14 at half-time after Kaleb Johnson's two-yard touchdown run.

The second half followed the same pattern. After Isaiah McDuffie stripped Stevenson and recovered the fumble, Love immediately found Watson for a 39-yard touchdown to make it 42-14. Trey Smack added field goals from 51 and 38 yards, and by the time Corey Kiner scored a late consolation touchdown for New England, the contest was long over.

Maye endured a difficult afternoon. He finished 21 of 38 for 299 yards with three touchdowns and three interceptions, was sacked four times, and was benched by head coach Mike Vrabel for the final minutes with the Patriots trailing 45-21. McKinney intercepted him twice, while Evan Williams also picked off a pass.

There was injury concern for both teams. Packers running back Josh Jacobs left in the first quarter with a hand injury and did not return, with Johnson stepping in for 11 carries, 59 yards and a touchdown. Stevenson also failed to return after suffering a knee injury in the third quarter.

The defeat leaves New England at 5-4. The Patriots now fly to Germany, where they face the Detroit Lions in Munich next Sunday before their bye week. Green Bay, meanwhile, return home for a big NFC North meeting with the Minnesota Vikings next Sunday.
