Packers vs Chiefs: Kansas City beats Green Bay without Aaron Rodgers

CNN  

CNN — The Kansas City Chiefs beat the Green Bay Packers 13-7 on Sunday, with the Packers missing their star quarterback Aaron Rodgers who is in Covid-19 protocols. Jamie Squire/Getty Images But it was the Chiefs’ defense that was the star of the show, stifling the Rodger-less Packers, something Chiefs coach Andy Reid praised afterwards. “There were a couple plays where he got out of some stuff … but I’m disappointed that we didn’t deal the ball faster and call things that might show a little bit quicker for him.” L'Jarius Sneed reacts after intercepting a pass during the fourth quarter against the Packers. “This is a huge unforced error by a man who has transcended football and wants to have a career … whether it’s hosting ‘Jeopardy!’ or on other parts of our culture,” CNN sports analyst Christine Brennan told “The Lead with Jake Tapper.” “What a shock, what a surprise that this is the guy we thought was so smart and well-read, and it turns out that he doesn’t even have the courage or the guts to say he wasn’t vaccinated, probably because he was fearful of that ‘woke mob.’” Rodgers could return for the Packers’ next game against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.
