Packers vs. Falcons: 5 things to watch and a prediction

The Green Bay Packers (1-0) have an opportunity to start a season with back-to-back road wins for the first time in franchise history when Matt LaFleur’s team goes into Atlanta to take on the Falcons (1-0) at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday.

The Week 2 showdown features two young but exciting NFC playoff hopefuls coming off big division wins in the season opener.

Jordan Love threw three touchdown passes and the defense produced a pair of takeaways during the Packers’ 38-20 win over the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field in Week 1, while the Falcons got three total touchdowns from running backs Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier and three takeaways from Jessie Bates III in a 24-10 victory over the Carolina Panthers at home in the opener.
