Stock up, stock down for Packers following Week 2 win vs. Vikings
After their Week 2 win, whose stock is rising for the Green Bay Packers?
Victory Monday feels good. And while many of the new head coaches around the league are off to slow starts, Matt LaFleur couldn’t be happier with the way the Green Bay Packers have kicked off the 2019 season. They haven’t necessarily played great football throughout, but they’ve played well enough to win two huge divisional games.
It’s the Packers’ best start since 2015, and for once, they’re not behind the eight ball early in the season. They have grabbed the early lead in the NFC North and already have played a third of their divisional games for the season. And with two victories against NFC North opponents, their division record is already stronger than all of last year.
LaFleur will take plenty of positives from Sunday’s win, but there’s also a lot they’ll need to put right next week against the Denver Broncos. But it’s pretty clear that this team has a great opportunity to build a strong foundation early in the season.
Following their victory over the Vikings, who put in standout performances, and who will be disappointed with how they played? Here’s our stock report for the Packers after their second win and entering the third week of the regular season.
