One of the key questions for the Falcons coming into this game was whether the defense could slow down Aaron Rodgers and the Packers offense. Give the early advantage to Green Bay on that one. Now the question for Green Bay is whether that will make that much of a difference.
Packers Vs. Falcons: Jordy Nelson Catch, Eric Weems Return For TD Make Score 14-7
After Greg Jennings fumbles a first-down reception away to give the Falcons a touchdown opportunity, the Packers get right back to driving easily down the field. Rodgers is 7-of-7 for 48 yards and the six-yard touchdown strike to Jordy Nelson to tie the game. It’s a 14-play drive, with some uneven success for the Packers’ running game.
The lead lasts for all of one play. Eric Weems runs the ensuing kickoff back 102 yards for the touchdown to give the lead back to the Falcons. It’s a playoff record for the Falcons and a season long for Weems, who’s a pretty solid return man for Atlanta.
