Packers Secure Playoff Spot with Dominant 34-0 Shutout Over Saints

Green Bay's defense delivers NFL's first shutout of the season, while Josh Jacobs leads offense in team's most lopsided win in a decade.

The Green Bay Packers clinched a wild card spot in the NFC playoffs with a decisive 34-0 victory over the New Orleans Saints at Lambeau Field.
The Packers' defense recorded the NFL's first shutout of the 2024 season, holding the Saints to just 196 total yards and forcing two turnovers.
Running back Josh Jacobs totaled 107 yards from scrimmage and scored a touchdown, extending his streak to six consecutive games with a rushing touchdown.
Quarterback Jordan Love threw for 182 yards and a touchdown, while the Packers' offense scored on six of their first eight drives, including three rushing touchdowns.
Green Bay has now won nine of its last 11 games and will face the NFC North-leading Minnesota Vikings next week, though the division title is out of reach.
