GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Don’t assume anything with these Green Bay Packers.
The NFL’s youngest team also is among its least predictable. One week after blowing a 12-point, fourth-quarter lead in a 25-24 loss at Atlanta, the Packers erased a 17-point deficit in the final 11 minutes of an 18-17 victory over the New Orleans Saints.
“We never give up,” Packers outside linebacker Preston Smith said after the game. “We’re not the type of team that just waves the white flag. We’re going to keep fighting till the game is over. We’ll fight even in the parking lot.
