The last time the New Orleans Saints played at Lambeau Field, the gameday temperature was 68 degrees Fahrenheit. The game was Jordan Love’s fourth career start at quarterback, and he had yet to find his Toyotathon-fueled elite level of play early on in the 2023 season.
That game came down to the wire, ultimately ending with the Saints missing a potential game-winning field goal to give the Packers an 18-17 victory. That result would be crucially important for both teams, who finished the season with matching 9-8 records. The Saints missed out on the NFC South title, losing a tiebreaker to the likewise 9-8 Buccaneers; the Packers claimed the NFC’s 7th and final playoff seed thanks in part to the head-to-head win over New Orleans.
