Malik Willis ran for a touchdown and threw for a score in his best performance in the NFL, leading the Green Bay Packers to a 30-14 rout of the Tennessee Titans.
The quarterback not only won his second straight start subbing for the injured Jordan Love, but also he got a sweet measure of revenge against the team that traded him.
Willis accounted for 134 of the Packers' 137 yards in the first quarter and finished with 202 yards passing and 73 rushing in the dominant week three win.

Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander scored a touchdown on his first career pick-six late in the first quarter, helping Green Bay jump out to an early 10-point lead.
Green Bay also had eight sacks on defence - their most in almost two decades.
First-year coach Brian Callahan has the Titans (0-3) off to their worst start since losing the first six matches in the 2009 season.
And it was Willis showed the Titans exactly what they gave up when they opted to stick with Will Levis as their starter and bring in Mason Rudolph as his backup.
Levis threw two TD passes in the defeat, but again struggled through large patches.
Tennessee will look to record their first win of the year when they face Dolphins next week, while the Packers will be hoping to build on their strong start against Minnesota.
