Packers Become 5th Team to Score 50 Points in Consecutive Games

The Green Bay Packers scored 53 points in Sunday's win over the Philadelphia Eagles to become just the fifth team in NFL history to reach the 50-point mark in consecutive games, per ESPN Stats & Info.

After beating the Chicago Bears by a score of 55-14 in Week 10, the Packers improved to 5-0 at home this season by routing the Eagles 53-20.

Green Bay has now outscored its opponents 214-85 in five home games, including 183-61 over the last four.

Star quarterback Aaron Rodgers has mostly had the luxury of watching fourth quarters from the sidelines, as the Packers held halftime leads of 28-0, 28-3, 42-0 and 30-6 in those last four home games.

While it was once incredibly rare for a team to reach 50 points in consecutive contests, the feat has now occurred in each of the last three seasons, with the Seattle Seahawks doing it in 2012 and the Denver Broncos in 2013, per ESPN Stats & Info.

The accomplishment may not carry the same cache that it once did, but the Packers will still have a chance to make history in a Week 12 road game against the Minnesota Vikings.

No team has ever reached the 50-point mark in three consecutive games, even in the current high-scoring era.

Of course, the Packers have a tall task ahead of them, having mostly played mediocre football on the road this season. For all the dominance at home, Green Bay is just 2-3 away from Lambeau Field, with a mere 22.2 points per game in road contests.

The good news is that the Packers already handled the Vikings once this season, beating their northern rivals 42-10 in a Week 5 blowout at Lambeau.
