GREEN BAY, Wis (WFRV) – Cheers, high fives, and lots of dancing took place during the course of the Packers’ 27-23 come-from-behind win against the Cardinals.
It all came down to the clock hitting zero for fans to be relieved that the Green the Gold got their fourth win of the season, but after thoughts of a dominating win before the game, it turned into a nail-biter in the end.
“I came into this thinking we had this game, no problem, Micah Parsons came through, glad for that, Jordan Love came through when it mattered, great game, great pace, and I love when it comes down to the end,” says Johnathan Foskette, a Packers fan who made is way up to Wisconsin from Phoenix, Arizona.

From Josh Jacobs scoring two touchdowns, to Micah Parsons getting three sacks, to Lucas Havrisik breaking the Packers’ record for longest field goal at 61 yards, the game gave fans plenty to root for.
“For someone like Micah, he deserves the money he is paid, and the kicker, I was a kicker in high school, and you know what, I sucked, but this guy doesn’t suck, how this guy can step into this pressure cooker of the league, and how he can step in and make these kicks, it’s unbelievable,” says Steven Guyette from Sun Praire, Wisconsin.
Now the Packers have back-to-back wins for the first time since Weeks 1 and 2, bringing confidence back to fans, believing that this could be the team to bring the Lombardi back to Titletown for the first time since 2011.
“This is a team that could go all the way. I give credit to the coaches, the preparation. This is a league where everyone is a professional, you’re not gonna dominate every game, and play one game at a time, and every game is like the Super Bowl,” says Guyette.
Next up for the Pack is a trip to Pittsburgh, and a reunion with former Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, which fans aren’t worried about facing the 4-time MVP.
“Micah Parsons is going to bury him (Rodgers), he is gonna bury him, I love that, I love that.”
