All week, the Green Bay Packers talked about establishing their running game in their week two contest against the Chicago Bears. Head coach Matt LaFleur was emphatic about getting his running backs, Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon, more touches after the two had just 23 combined in the team’s week one loss in Minnesota.
He called more plays for the two dynamic backs on Sunday Night Football, and they delivered — Jones especially. The sixth-year back had his first 100-yard game of the season on the ground and dominated the second and third quarters of the game, scoring two touchdowns, one on the ground and one through the air, to jump-start the offense.
