Packers 32, Rams 18: The Packers got three touchdowns in total from presumptive MVP Aaron Rodgers (two passes, one rush) and produced nearly 500 yards of all-out attack in total in a convincing 14-point win over the Los Angeles Rams at Lambeau Field. Green Bay was never behind and had a 16-3 and 25-10 lead. Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams and AJ Dillon combined for 191 rushing yards, while Davante Adams and Allen Lazard both caught touchdown passes. The Rams only had three scoring discs and 244 total yards of offense. Rashan Gary, Kenny Clark and Za’Darius Smith came together for four sacks.

Buccaneers 30, Saints 20: Despite losing the Saints twice during the regular season, including a 38-3 loss at home, the Bucs stormed into New Orleans and escaped with a win, using four turnovers to end the Saints’ season. Like Rodgers, Tom Brady created three touchdowns, including a rush. The Bucs intercepted Drew Brees three times. Trailing 20-13, Tampa Bay scored the last 17 points of the game, including 14 on turnover. Linebacker Devin White had 11 tackles, one interception and one fumble.
