Tight end Tucker Kraft caught two touchdown passes, including a go-ahead, 66-yard score in the third quarter, and the Green Bay Packers held on for a 24-19 win over the host Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Jordan Love completed 15 of 26 passes for 224 yards, two touchdowns and one interception for Green Bay (3-2). Josh Jacobs had 19 carries for 73 yards and a score.
Matthew Stafford finished 29-of-45 for 260 yards, one touchdown and one interception for Los Angeles (1-4). Kyren Williams tallied 22 carries for 102 yards and a touchdown, and Demarcus Robinson had a touchdown catch. Los Angeles moved to the Green Bay 38-yard line on its final drive, but Stafford threw incomplete on fourth-and-5 with 1:05 to go.
The Packers opened the scoring midway through the first quarter. Jacobs rushed for a 2-yard touchdown to finish a 10-play, 96-yard drive. The Rams also turned to their running game to pull even at 7-7 early in the second quarter.
Williams scored on a 1-yard run for his sixth rushing touchdown in five games this season. A defensive touchdown put the hosts on top 14-7 with 2:02 remaining in the first half. Linebacker Byron Young pressured Love in the Packers' end zone, and Love flung a reckless pass to avoid taking a safety.
Defensive back Jaylen McCollough intercepted the pass and quickly scored on a pick-six from 4 yards out. Green Bay pulled within 14-10 as time expired in the first half. Rookie kicker Brayden Narveson converted a 46-yard field goal.
Love and Kraft connected.
