Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs scored three 1-yard touchdown runs and Jeff Hafley’s defense produced three takeaways in a commanding 38-10 win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday at Lambeau Field.
Jacobs, who dealt with cramping in the second half, rushed 26 times for 106 yards and three scores. The Packers scored 21 points off three takeaways, including another interception from Xavier McKinney.
Matt LaFleur’s team dominated for most of the game against a 49ers team without Brock Purdy and Nick Bosa. Green Bay held a 17-0 lead in the first half, took a 24-7 lead in the second half and then closed out the win with back-to-back touchdowns in the fourth quarter.
Quarterback Jordan Love threw two touchdown passes and should have had a third but Christian Watson dropped what would have been a 49-yard touchdown pass to end the first half.
The Packers finished with significant advantages in plays, total yards, first downs, rushing yards and time of possession.
The win improved the Packers to 8-3 with the win and dropped the 49ers to 5-6, significantly strengthening Green Bay’s playoff positioning while severely damaging San Francisco’s.
The Packers will welcome the Miami Dolphins to Lambeau Field on Thanksgiving Night in Week 13.
