The Green Bay Packers beat the New England Patriots 45-27 on Sunday, November 8, 2026, at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, in a game decided less by what Green Bay built than by what New England handed over.
The Patriots turned the ball over four times, and the Packers converted those four giveaways into 21 points. Green Bay never trailed. The win moved the Packers to 6-3; New England fell to 5-4 and had been unbeaten at home.
Three interceptions from a quarterback who had thrown one in a month
Drake Maye finished 21 of 38 for 299 yards and three touchdown passes — and three interceptions. He had thrown a single pick in his previous four games.
Safety Xavier McKinney took two of them, the first at the New England 14 in the opening minutes. Safety Evan Williams had the third. Running back Rhamondre Stevenson also lost a fumble, which set up a Christian Watson touchdown.
Two plays after McKinney's first interception, Jordan Love scrambled into the end zone to put Green Bay ahead 7-0. The Packers led 24-14 at halftime and opened the second half with a seven-play, 70-yard drive that ended in a 10-yard touchdown pass to Savion Williams.
478 yards, and a pairing the Packers had not seen since 1942
Love threw for 372 yards with three touchdown passes and no interceptions, and added the rushing score. Green Bay finished with 478 total yards, 129 of them on the ground, with Kaleb Johnson also running for a touchdown.
Watson caught seven passes for 171 yards and a touchdown. Matthew Golden had 10 catches for 164 yards and a touchdown. According to the Associated Press, they are the first pair of Packers teammates to each gain more than 150 receiving yards and catch a touchdown in the same game since 1942.
For New England, Stevenson, Efton Chism and Mack Hollins each caught a touchdown pass, and DeMario Douglas had five receptions for 102 yards. The 45 points are the most the Patriots have allowed in a home game at Gillette Stadium, which opened in 2002.
Injuries on both sidelines
New England lost left tackle Will Campbell to a knee injury, and cornerback Carlton Davis III and guard Ben Brown were also hurt. Green Bay running back Josh Jacobs and linebacker Ty'Ron Hopper left the game as well.
Green Bay hosts Minnesota next Sunday. New England plays Detroit in Munich.
