Packers 2019 awards: Best player, best performance and more
Worst Game
Green Bay at San Francisco
The Packers had just three losses, and even then it wasn’t too hard to pick out their worst game. In both games traveling to the west coast, the Packers came out pretty sluggish and didn’t look too sharp. The Chargers game was bad but wasn’t a blowout. The 49ers game was bad. They looked completely overmatched in every aspect of the game.
They managed just 198 total yards, including just 104 passing from Rodgers, who also took five sacks. The offense also got just one first down on 15 third-down tries. Not good. In the end, they lost 37-8 to the eventual number one seed in the NFC.
The good news? A rematch could be looming in the playoffs.
Others: at Los Angeles, vs. Philadelphia, at Detroit
Best Performance
Aaron Jones vs. Dallas
Before the game in Dallas, Jones was in the middle of a productive season. He had 195 yards rushing and four touchdowns. He was also being productive in the passing game with 75 yards receiving and four touchdowns.
Then came the game in Dallas. The Cowboys had no answer for him. He killed them through the air and on the ground. He had 19 carries for 107 yards and four touchdowns, including his infamous waving celebration that cost him $10,500 in fines, but led to Barstool selling shirts and donating that same amount to charity, so some good came out of it.
Jones has had some other great games this year, but none quite as productive as in their win over the Cowboys, which made it even sweeter.
Others: Za’Darius Smith vs. Minnesota, Davante Adams vs. Philadelphia
