Quick Take: Slow Packers let home crowd wait until fourth quarter to seal the victory over Redskins
Under heavy pressure, J. Campbell gets rid of the ball, but (the coach controlled) R. Pickett deflects the pass
It was over when...
Will Blackmon picked up a muffed punt, giving the Packers the opportunity to start a drive on the opponents 24yrd line with 12min to go in the fourth quarter. Ryan Grant scored the 21-7 on a two yard TD run and the Packers lead was too high for the Redskins to get back into the game.
Game ball
goes to Packers WR Greg Jennings who had the best game of the season so far with 9 receptions for 140 yards. The catch of the game for 57 yards came with seconds to play in the second quarter, setting up the second Packers TD, giving the Pack huge momentum going into the half.
Key stat
For a long time, the game was dominated by the two Defenses, reflected in the subpar 3rd down conversion rating for both teams (below 31%). While the Redskins secondary gave Aaron Rodgers a hard time finding into the game, the Packers D line dominated Clinton Protis and sacked Jason Campbell four times, three by Aaron Kampman
Noteworthy
Four of the game's TDs came after the Offenses turned over the ball deep in their own territory. While both teams scored TDs after interceptions, the Pack also scored after recovering a muffed punt and a missed 4th down conversion.
