By PACKERSWIRE The Green Bay Packers had their three-game winning streak snapped at the hands of Tommy DeVito, Saquon Barkley and the New York Giants on Monday night at MetLife Stadium. Despite leading 7-0 in the first quarter, 10-7 at halftime and 22-21 with 1:33 left, the Packers were unable to seal the deal, giving up a game-winning field goal drive to cap off a disappointing performance overall. The Packers are now 6-7 — including 0-2 on “Monday Night Football” — through 14 weeks. Here’s what went right, what went wrong, what it means and what’s next for the Packers after Monday night’s 24-22 loss: — Jayden Reed gave the Packers a 7-0 lead in the first quarter on a well-designed and perfectly executed end around. The touchdown came two plays after a 35-yard catch-and-run by A.J. Dillon and three plays after Dontayvion Wicks’ sprawling fourth-down conversion. — Jordan Love and Malik Heath teamed up to give the Packers a late lead with an incredible throw and catch on 3rd-and-goal with 1:33 left. The touchdown was the first of Heath’s NFL career. — Rookie tight end Tucker Kraft caught four passes for 64 yards, all career-highs. His final three catches, including the 43-yarder to kickstart a scoring drive in the fourth quarter, gained first downs. — Carrington Valentine produced an impressive 50-yard fumble return after Saquon Barkley’s nightmare moment in the fourth quarter. The return set up the go-ahead touchdown. — The Packers stuffed a fourth-down attempt from the Giants in the first half. — The Packers turned the ball over three times. Jordan Love lost a fumble (his first of the season) and threw an interception in Giants territory, negating points, and Keisean Nixon muffed a punt, leading to a Giants touchdown to open the second half. New York scored only seven points off three turnovers but the giveaways were probably the difference in the game. — Nixon gave up a 32-yard catch after losing leverage on the final drive. The explosive play moved the Giants to the 22-yard line and set up the game-winning field goal. It was the only completion over 15 yards allowed by the Packers defense. — The Packers had zero sacks, two quarterback hits and zero pass breakups on Tommy DeVito, a rookie quarterback starting his fourth career game. The pass-rush consistently flew past DeVito, who scrambled for positive plays. — The Giants rushed for over 200 yards. The Packers are now 0-4 when giving up 200 or more this season. Saquon Barkley scored two rushing touchdowns, DeVito rushed for 71 yards, and Wan’Dale Robinson had a 32-yard run setting up a touchdown. — Jayden Reed’s 10 targets and 14 total touches created only 65 total yards, including just 27 receiving yards. The Packers desperately tried to get him going on misdirection plays but the Giants — after getting tricked early — stuffed the majority of them, including the pivotal two-point conversion late. — The Packers were out-gained by 1.8 yards per play against a team that came into the game averaging only 4.1 yards per play. — Anders Carlson made three field goals but also missed one from 45. The Packers lost by two points. — The Packers finished 5-for-14 on third down and 2-for-5 scoring touchdowns in the red zone. — Both Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) and Jayden Reed (elevated for concussion) suffered injuries. For a team in the thick of the postseason push, this was a terrible, terrible loss. The Packers played extremely poorly and threw away an incredible opportunity to get to 7-6 and solidify themselves as the team to beat in the NFC wild card race. There are still four winnable games down the stretch, but Monday night was a great reminder that this is a young, volatile Packers team who can beat anyone but also get beat by anyone. While the Packers remain the No. 7 seed in the postseason standings entering Week 15, it might be difficult for Matt LaFleur’s team to regain the momentum it carried through the previous five games. And now the Packers are one of six teams with a 6-7 record competing for a wildcard spot. A big rebound is required next week against a division-leading team currently in the NFC playoffs. The Packers will welcome the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to Lambeau Field next Sunday. The showdown marks the first time the two teams will play in Green Bay since the 2020 NFC title game. Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady are long gone, but this is still a big one for two teams transitioning away from Hall of Fame quarterbacks. The Bucs started 3-1 and then lost six of seven games, but Todd Bowles’ team has won back-to-back games — including a thrilling win over the Falcons last week to take control in the NFC South. The Packers — who are losing a day due to playing on the road on Monday night — will have to find a way to recover and bounce back quickly against a team starting to heat up.

"Kudos to Amy for making sure that the tickets to the tailgate party were waiting for me at the reception desk! Your personal phone call and text messages went above and beyond customer satisfaction! I can't wait for the 2024 season, rest assured that my go-to Packer's game supplier will be Event USA for a long time.

"Thank you so much Cathy, greatly appreciate your help.
As always, EventUSA has been awesome to deal with in booking the Lodge Kohler package for the Tampa Bay Game,
particularly for me traveling from Sydney, Australia, it takes the stress out of the booking process. "

"Good Morning, Nicole - Everything you did turned out great. The seats were great. Access to the air conditioned club lounge was great. Lots of Packers fans in the club lounge and overall at the stadium. The tailgate party at the fancy restaurant in the hotel was fabulous. The servers just kept on bringing out different sliders and desserts. Good thing that I got in a 30-minute run along the river in the morning. So, thank you! You may be speaking with me in November if I can work out getting up to Green Bay for a game. It's been too long since my last time.
One of the best aspects of this weekend was interacting with so many people from Wisconsin and learning their personal stories of things Packers. And we even met a couple from St. Petersburg, Florida (my home county) and were able to tell them about the Varsity Club tavern and Packers bar in Clearwater where Mark Murphy's mother is in attendance -- very nice lady whose retirement home is in Clearwater, which borders my little city of Dunedin. Pre-COVID, I always went to the Varsity when the Packers games weren't televised locally -- lots of Wisconsin natives there, too + they serve brats and sauerkraut during Packers games. I'm glad that you are working for Event USA.

"Dennis - I was blessed to join Amy and some of your customers at the Morton's tailgate as well as after the game. She does an amazing job for you. Every single customer I met praised Event USA for being able to arrange the hotel and tickets and fabulous tailgate party in such a quick time. Having been to some great tour tailgate parties in Jacksonville and Kansas City and old San Francisco, a lot can be said of the long-term benefit of having really great tailgate parties. Morton's was probably one of the best - amazing food, patio sitting on the riverfront, walk to stadium, open bar!!! It was first class fun!!!"

"Hi Amy-
Just wanted to say thank you for making Jacksonville happen! We had a wonderful time and looking forward to more Packers games with Event USA in the future!
Even though the game was not what we expected- we are packers fans for life-lol!
Go pack go!!"
-Julie Mastrianni
"I want to thank Event USA and in particular Amy Flores for the Jacksonville trip. We have used you before and always were very pleased with the packages you have set up and your service.
My son who lives in Charleston, SC and myself who lives in Minnesota, decided we needed to do a guys trip and decided to go through your company to see the opener in New Orleans. I initially called and talked with Amy about some questions I had and booked our trip. After itinerary and info was emailed to us, it soon became apparent that the trip to New Orleans wouldn’t happen. In steps Amy, wondering if we would be interested in Dallas if the game was moved there and a package was set up. Then finally the move to Jacksonville and continued communication from Amy on our interest. It was getting late at that point and I was wondering if she would be able to pull off setting up a package in Jacksonville. She did it.
We went to Jacksonville and had a great time. The accommodations and the tail gate were fabulous. If only the Packer team we were hoping for had made the trip.
Thank you Event USA and in particular Amy Flores."

"Thank you for all your help. I had a great time at the Packer-Raider game opening day. I have already begun telling interested Packer fans in Sacramento about your service. The next time I come to Green Bay for a game, I’ll be sure to ask for your help. God bless you and God bless the Green Bay Packers."
-Frank Chavez, Sacramento
"I just wanted to say that I had such a great time. The whole weekend was so much fun. I enjoyed the Player Autograph Party and the tailgate party was just the best. After coming from a country that loves soccer, it was nice to mix with people who have the same interests as me. Thank you once again, Green Bay is one very special place."
-Beverley Moore, Lancaster
"My accommodations at the Best Western Midway were excellent. I was picked up at the airport and returned promptly. No problems at all. Your representative at the hotel on game day was very pleasant and helpful. The tailgate party was super, great food, great drinks and lots of fun. Obviously, Lambeau Field and the game itself was great. I will continue to use Event USA in the future, and I will definitely tell anyone who I come across to give you a call. One last thing, the hospitality I experienced in Green Bay was incredible. I have traveled to many places, and I don’t think there are more friendly people than the people of Green Bay. Thank you again and see you next year!"
-David Anastas, Worchester
"My wife and I booked the tour to Tampa. The trip was so well organized from start to finish. It started with the people in the office with their friendly help over the phone, to receiving the tickets in the mail, and meeting the tour guides with their upbeat personalities. Signs guided us in the airport and information was posted in our motel lobbies to keep us posted. Your people had everything in order. Talk about organization, you had it. Event USA made this a most memorable trip. Thanks for all involved."
-Dick Koerner, Neenah
"I wish to convey my sincere thanks and gratitude for providing my husband and I with, what he refers to as the greatest experience of my life, apart from my wedding day."

"Thanks for all your help, the great tickets and service, and the chance to help me make one of my son’s dreams come true, seeing the Packers playing at home in Lambeau Field."
-Sam Jones, Sedalia
"I just want to thank you for the wonderful job your staff did last weekend for the Packers vs. Lions game. This was our first time utilizing your program and we were not disappointed at all. In fact, we can’t wait to schedule and event for next season’s games. From my first experience with your staff placing my order until the very end at checkout of the hotel, everything was perfect. You truly out-do yourselves to please everyone. Thanks again for making our stay in Green Bay one of the best."
-Kim Ewing and Bruce DeMaine, Ann Arbor
"Thanks so much for the best weekend ever! You not only got us in all the Magazines, TV, WWW pages and even the big screen at Lambeau Field, but Disney World on the side? Nice job – You and your family are top notch – we were on the best tour for the Super Bowl! Seeing the Green Bay Packers win back the Lombardi Trophy was a life long dream of this Packer fan, and you all were so dedicated to the job of taking care of us that, like the Packers, we were a winning team! Keep me on your list."
-William D Lorge, Representative to the Wisconsin State Assembly
