The Packers So Far in 2018

From NFL.com: "Don't see shutouts at Lambeau too often. It's been a minute since the Packers' defense has been able to hold an opponent scoreless in front of the home folk. The last time it happened: in 2009, when Green Bay whitewashed a bad Lions team, 26-zip. Interestingly enough, Packers LB Clay Matthews secured two sacks that day, while his unit as a whole produced five sacks and three takeaways. On Sunday, Green Bay totaled seven sacks and three takeaways, which were huge factors in making rookie signal-caller Josh Allen uncomfortable throughout. The Bills couldn't run a lick, either. While the 22-0 victory was a quiet one for Aaron Rodgers (55.0 percent completion rate for 298 passing yards, one score, one pick and a passer rating of 76.9), confidence abounds that he will rebound.

"Power Rankings trivia: Until Sunday, the Packers had never won a game by the score of 22-0 in 100 years of football. The closest (and most recent) chance was a 21-zip blowout against the Bucs in 1985. It was played in a blizzard, with Tampa's white uniforms barely visible. Who was the Bucs' rookie QB that day? (Hint: He was later named MVP of the league for a different franchise.)"
