Packers score 5th win after beating Titans 40-14 | sports

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) – Davante Adams caught three of Aaron Rodgers’ four touchdown passes and the Green Bay Packers beat the Tennessee Titans 40-14 on Sunday for their fifth straight victory.

The Packers (12-3) have already clinched the NL North Division title and can be the conference’s top seed for the postseason if they win their next game against Chicago (8-7) or if Seattle (11-4 ) loses to San Francisco (6-9) next week.

Green Bay was boosted by AJ Dillon’s 124 yards and two touchdowns and Aaron Jones’ 94 yards. Dillon, a second-round pick at Boston College, had logged just 115 yards on the season during a rookie year in which he spent more than a month on the COVID-19 reserve list.

Tennessee (10-5) let go of a chance to win its first AFC Southern Division championship since 2008. The Titans can still clinch the divisional title and their second consecutive postseason berth if they beat Houston (4-11). ) next week.

Adams’ three touchdown catches increased his tally to 17 this season, one of the Packers records Sterling Sharpe set in 1994. Adams, who caught 11 passes for 142 yards on Sunday, leads the NFL with the most touchdown receptions despite missing two games due to injury.
