The first half for the Packers in their game Sunday against the Washington Commanders was certainly not a work of art once again.

The Packers are up 14-10 but the offense had its fair share of issues moving the ball, with many quick, unproductive drives. And the special teams continued its downward trend with Amari Rodgers muffing a punt, leading to a field goal by the Commanders.

But one of the highlights was De'Vondre Campbell's pick-six of Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke early in the second quarter. Campbell returned the interception 63 yards for a touchdown to give the Packers a 14-3 lead.

It was a rare takeaway for a Packers defense this season.

As Packers News reporter Ryan Wood points out it was just the team's second interception all season and first in five games.

This stat shows how much the Packers offense has struggled in the first half.

The second half, however, got off to a bad start for the Packers defense, as it allowed a quick Washington touchdown. The Packers now trail, 17-14.
