Green Bay Packers: Tennessee Titans Head Coach Brian Callahan Commits To Will Levis As Team’s Quarterback
Be honest. Did you see the Green Bay Packers going 2-0 with Willis as the starter? Maybe winning one of these two games against AFC South teams, but both? That’s where the Packers are now, however, sitting 2-1 and a game behind the 3-0 Vikings, who come to Lambeau Field next Sunday to most likely face a Jordan Love-led squad.
The Packers beat the Tennessee Titans yesterday — Willis’ old team — with a combination of Willis’ arm, his legs, and a smothering defense that delivered sack after sack and turnover after turnover. Jeff Hafey’s unit has now forced three turnovers in each of three consecutive games, and they got their first defensive touchdown of the season as well.

All of it combined for a fun, exciting Sunday afternoon. Let’s take a look back at it.
