Wisconsin State Journal columnist Tom Oates grades the Green Bay Packers' performance in their 42-24 win over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday at Lambeau Field in Green Bay.
Offense: A
Aaron Rodgers flirted with perfection all day and ended with a passer rating of 158.3, the maximum. Given consistently clean pockets by his line, Rodgers masterfully used all of his receivers and all of the field. Aaron Jones' adjustment on his touchdown catch was something you see from wide receivers, not running backs.
Defense: D-plus
Kudos to the defense for an end-zone interception by Kevin King and a goal-line stand in the fourth quarter.
