Packers take 24-0 lead over Cardinals on Christian Watson’s 44-yard TD

A game-changing three-play sequence has the Green Bay Packers leading the Arizona Cardinals 24-0 in the first half of Sunday’s showdown at Lambeau Field.

What could have been a momentum-turning play for the Cardinals in the second quarter turned into a quick scoring strike for the Packers.

Jayden Reed fumbled on a punt return and the Cardinals recovered. The problem? Offsetting penalties, requiring a re-kick. On the next play, Keisean Nixon returned the punt 39 yards to the Arizona 44-yard line. On the first play of the next series, Jordan Love hit Christian Watson for a 44-yard touchdown.
