Patriots (NFL)

The New England Patriots lost a hard-fought battle against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday 26-21. The Packers gained the lead in the first quarter, making two field goals and a touchdown. Fortunately, Patriots running back Brandon Bolden scored a touchdown at the beginning of the second quarter, and wide receiver Brandon LaFell scored another at the end of the second quarter. Although it looked like a comeback was possible for the Patriots, they could not match the Packers’ efficient plays and quarterback Aaron Rodgers’s passing accuracy.

The Patriots enter week 14 of the season ranked first in the American Football Conference with a 9-3 record. They will face the San Diego Chargers in San Diego on Dec. 7.
