Packers Winner: AJ Dillon

On the surface, AJ Dillon’s day looked ho-hum, as he ran for 76 yards on 20 carries (a 3.8 yard per carry average) and scored one touchdown. Believe it or not, that’s the fifth-highest total yards in his career and the second-most since the 2022 season. However, he did that despite few running lanes and often getting hit in the backfield. His vision wasn’t perfect, but he showed off good power and drive of his legs.

Packers Winner: Rasul Douglas

Rasul Douglas continues to play at a high level and has been the best Packers’ cornerback this season. He flew all over the field, anticipating where the quarterback was going with the rock and quickly diagnosing plays. He single-handily shut down two trick plays by the Raiders on Monday night and had two pass breakups.
