SourceGround game is the mismatch to watch
The preview lists Green Bay at 60.6 rushing yards per game and New England allowing 95.3; a bottled-up Packers run game could force more from Jordan Love.

Christian Watson returned against Carolina after suffering a reported broken rib and finished with eight catches for 113 yards; he is listed as questionable for the Packers’ matchup with New England.
