from packers.com:
Green Bay will be looking to win the week following the bye for the third consecutive year, having beaten the Los Angeles Rams at home last year, 24-12. In 2021, the Packers beat the Chicago Bears at home, 45-30, after the bye to snap a four-game losing streak in games following the bye week.

caveat: that was with a different qb.

also worth noting:
The Packers play on the road following the bye for the first time since 2020. Dating back to 2000, below are the 13 road games for Green Bay following the bye week:
2020 - Week 6, at TB, L, 10-38
2019 - Week 12, at SF, L, 8-37
2018 - Week 8, at LAR, L, 27-29

edit: although the article i quoted showed the 13 post-bye road games since 2000, i only considered the three when mlf was the head coach to be relevant to bud's question. here are the rest:

2015 - Week 8, at DEN, L, 10-29
2012 - Week 11, at DET, W, 24-20
2011 - Week 9, at SD, W, 45-38
2010 - Week 11, at MIN, W, 31-3
2008 - Week 9, at TEN, L, 16-19
2007 - Week 8, at DEN, W, 19-13
2006 - Week 7, at MIA, W, 34-24
2005 - Week 7, at MIN, L, 20-23
2003 - Week 9, at MIN, W, 30-27
2000 - Week 8, at MIA, L, 20-28

They actually played a strong game against a really good Rams team on the road in 2018. Jaire was a monster against Brandon Cooks. GB received the ball late with a chance to go down the field and win with a FG but Ty Montgomery foolishly took the ball out of the end zone and fumbled.

2019 and 2020 they played really good teams out of the bye. Tampa won the SB. The 49ers went to the SB. Sometimes you get a bad match up.

Well yeah. But it was a lousy team during a lousy season where the HC got fired but it stands out in memory to me because they went on the road and showed some fight against a better team that went to the SB. Bit of an odd quirk there but three years in a row they played the eventual NFC representative in the SB coming out of their bye week.
