GREEN BAY – Quarterback Malik Willis had run just one play in place of Jordan Love when he took the field for his first full drive and the Packers trailing by four points.
Proceeding to put together an eight-play, 80-yard scoring march, to retake the lead in the third quarter, can certainly count as the Chevy Drive of the Week from Sunday's 30-27 victory in Jacksonville.
At the time, the game seemed to be getting away from Green Bay. Love had exited the game with a groin injury, a third-down scramble by Willis on his first play came up short of the sticks, and the Jaguars then went 93 yards in 10 plays for a touchdown to take a 17-13 lead.
The Packers took over on their own 20-yard line with Willis at the helm, and RB Josh Jacobs got to work.
Jacobs carried the ball on four straight plays, gaining 16 yards in all. RB Emanuel Wilson spelled him for one play and gained a yard. That set up third-and-4 from the 37 and Willis threw his first pass – a 5-yard completion to WR Dontayvion Wicks for a huge conversion.
From there, the score happened quickly. Willis went back to pass again on first down but found nobody open. So he took off up the middle of the field and gained 20 yards.
Jacobs then took the next handoff, dodged one tackler, broke through another, and was off to the races down the far sideline, going 38 yards with the help of a downfield block from WR Christian Watson for a touchdown.
The Packers led, 20-17, and never trailed again.
