GREEN BAY — Even after perhaps their most disappointing loss of the season, the Green Bay Packers still have an opportunity to make the playoffs. But their margin for error is much narrower. The Packers (6-7) ended a three-game winning streak in desultory fashion Monday night, falling 24-22 to the New York Giants. Green Bay still would have the NFC’s third and final wild-card playoff berth if the season ended today, thanks to various tiebreakers. Atlanta, New Orleans, Seattle, Tampa Bay and the Los Angeles Rams are also 6-7. The...

Malik Heath makes an impressive snag and breaks the plain to give the Packers a lead late in the fourth quarter. (0:41) EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Technically, the Green Bay Packers didn't lose their hold on the final playoff spot in the NFC. Their grip just got a little weaker. But they might have lost something almost as important: Momentum. That's what could happen when a Packers team that was coming off a three-game winning streak -- that included victories over two division leaders (Detroit Lions and Kansas City Chiefs)...

For as good as Love was during the Packers’ now-over three-game winning streak — and, credit where credit is due, as good as he was during the fourth quarter in getting the Packers the lead with less than 2 minutes to go — he also was inconsistent and inaccurate for much of Monday night while also committing two crucial turnovers. Which brings us back to Love’s predecessor. Speaking during his weekly appearance on ESPN’s “The Pat McAfee Show,” Rodgers had said he still roots for his protégé and former backup....

Heroes, zeros and the full blitz from the Giants’ 24-22 win over the Packers on Monday: Wan’Dale Robinson made three plays of 25 yards or more, setting up two touchdowns and Randy Bullock’s game-winning field goal as time expired. Jordan Love threw an interception and lost a fumble in field-goal range, becoming the latest young quarterback bested by defensive coordinator Wink Martindale. Deonte Banks led the Giants with a team-high 12 tackles and had a key pass break-up in single coverage in the end zone that forced the Packers to...

The Giants’ recipe for winning with this low-scoring offense is to force frequent turnovers on defense and capitalize. Wink Martindale’s aggressive scheme typically flusters young quarterbacks, and his defense has forced 10 turnovers in the last three games. But Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love is on a hot streak with eight touchdown passes and no turnovers in the Packers’ three-game winning streak. Forcing Love into an early mistake would go a long way toward keeping this game close and giving the Giants a chance. Jalin Hyatt made catches for 41,...
