Nixon had a 94-yard kickoff return in a 26-20 Christmas Day victory at Miami, but he left that game with a groin injury that kept him from practicing most of this week. Nixon's touchdown was the Packers' first off a kickoff return since Randall Cobb's franchise-record 108-yarder against New Orleans in 2011. This marked the first time the Packers scored on an interception return and a kickoff return in the same game since a 31-23 victory over the St. That outburst started with the big plays from Nixon and Savage.

Savage, Adrian Amos and Rudy Ford each intercepted passes by Cousins, while Kenny Clark recovered a fumble on a strip sack. Jefferson had nine receptions for 184 yards and two touchdowns in a season-opening 23-7 victory over the Packers. The Packers then took care of business by making life miserable for Cousins and Jefferson, the NFL's leading receiver who was held to one catch for 15 yards. Green Bay's latest bit of good fortune came earlier Sunday when Washington fell 24-10 at home to the Cleveland, putting the Packers in control of their postseason fate. A fourth straight postseason berth seemed out of the question after a 1-7 stretch dropped the Packers to 4-8, but they haven't lost since and have benefited from favourable results around the league.

The passing game looked sharper Sunday than in some of Huntley's previous action, but he was intercepted at the end of the game after the Steelers took the lead. The Ravens are 2-2 without quarterback Lamar Jackson, who was sidelined again with a knee injury. On the next play, Huntley threw to his left to Likely at the goal line to put Baltimore up by seven. Instead of settling for a field goal, the Ravens had a new set of downs at the Pittsburgh 7 with 11 seconds left. With the score tied at 3 late in the second quarter, the Steelers stopped Baltimore on third down, but Heyward was called for unnecessary roughness while on top of the pile. A penalty on Pittsburgh's Cam Heyward led to the game's first touchdown.
