A roundup of the latest Green Bay Packers articles for Sunday, Oct. 6.

Happy gameday to you all, and welcome to the Packers News Report. It’s Week 5, and it’s an important day for the Green Bay Packers. It’s been a 10-day wait since their last game, a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Another defeat today would put them at 3-2, and would undo some of the good work early in the season to start with a winning run.

But a win and a 4-1 record would put the team in a strong position entering two more home games in the coming weeks, starting with an NFC North battle against the Detroit Lions.

So let’s get right into the Packers News Report for today, rounding up some of the latest Packers articles.
