Scheduled for Thursday night, September 24, the Atlanta Falcons visit the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field in a Week 3 NFC meeting. Atlanta went 8-9 in 2025/26 and closed the season with four straight wins, while Green Bay finished 9-7-1 but dropped its final five games. Two teams with no prior meetings on record, and the room in Green Bay is already filling up for the occasion.
Atlanta finished 2025/26 with four straight wins and Green Bay lost its last five, yet the Packers still held the scoring edge on the season, 391-360 to 353-401.
Season form
Atlanta went 8-9 in 2025/26, good for third in the NFC South, and closed the season on four straight wins after a 37-9 loss at Seattle in early December. Green Bay finished 9-7-1, second in the NFC North, but limped to the finish on five straight losses, a slide that opened with a 34-26 defeat at Denver and closed with a 31-27 loss to Chicago. Side by side, the form reads like mirror opposites – Atlanta’s last five, W-W-W-W-L; Green Bay’s, L-L-L-L-L.
Offense vs defense
Green Bay outscored Atlanta by 38 points on the season, 391-353, powered by a passing attack that threw for 3,939 yards and 30 touchdowns against the Falcons’ 19 scoring throws. Atlanta answered on the ground, grinding out 2,138 rushing yards at 4.5 yards a carry with 17 rushing touchdowns, and the edge in rushing yardage between the two sides came down to a razor-thin two, 2,138 to 2,136. On defense, Green Bay conceded 360 points to Atlanta’s 401, while the Falcons’ front pressured opposing passers 57 times to Green Bay’s 37 sacks.
Head-to-head history
These two NFC teams have no prior meetings on record, so Week 3 at Lambeau marks a true introduction. There’s no history to thumb through, no score to settle – just a first meeting between a Falcons side that finished 2025/26 hot and a Packers side looking to answer a rough closing stretch. When two clubs meet for the first time, the table is set fresh, and there’s a seat open for whoever takes it.
Under the lights at Lambeau

Both clubs arrive carrying the weight of last season’s finishes – Atlanta riding four straight wins of momentum, Green Bay hunting for answers after five straight losses. With no prior meetings between them, this one starts from zero, and the room at Lambeau already has a seat open.
