Green Bay (4-1-1) fought through a sluggish first half to win its first road game of the season.
Josh Jacobs ran for a go-ahead, 1-yard touchdown with 1:50 remaining, Micah Parsons had a career-high three sacks and the Green Bay Packers rallied from an early 10-point deficit to beat the Arizona Cardinals 27-23 on Sunday.
Green Bay (4-1-1) fought through a sluggish first half to win its first road game of the season. The Packers had their share of adversity this weekend — the team’s travel was reportedly delayed roughly five hours on Saturday because of mechanical issues with their airplane in Wisconsin.
Arizona (2-5) had a chance to win the game on its final offensive drive but Jacoby Brissett’s fourth-down pass was batted away in the end zone with 6 seconds left. Brissett — filling in for the injured Kyler Murray — threw for 279 yards and two touchdowns.
The Cardinals have lost five straight games by a combined 13 points. They’re just the third NFL team to lose by four points or less in five straight, joining the 2017 San Francisco 49ers and 1984 Cleveland Browns.
