2014 IN REVIEW

All eyes were on Seattle, as the Green Bay Packers kicked off the season against the defending Super Bowl Champion Seahawks in the NFL’s Thursday Night opener. Despite taking the lead late in the first quarter on a two-yard run by John Kuhn, the Packers’ offense could not get in a grove with the Seahawks defense showing what made them the best in the NFL by winning 36-16. Things looked bad for the Packers a week later when they trailed the New York Jets in the home opener 21-3 early in the second quarter. The Packers’ offense found its groove as Aaron Rodgers passed for 346 yards with three touchdowns, including an 80-yard bomb to Jordy Nelson that would be the winning score in a 31-24. Rodgers and the Packers would not be able to get things going a week later as they suffered a 19-7 loss at the hands of the Detroit Lions. Following one of his worst games, Aaron Rodgers, who passed for just 162 yards, asked fans to R-E-L-A-X. The Packers quarterback knew what he was saying as he had four touchdowns while leading the Pack to a 38-17 win over the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Returning home, it was Eddie Lacy’s turn to get his season on the track, rushing for 105 yards with two scores as the Packers easily handled the Minnesota Vikings 42-10 in their second Thursday Night game of the year, with Julius Peppers recording his 100th career sack, and tenth career interception, one that was returned 49 yards for a touchdown. Aaron Rodgers showed some late magic in Week 7, leading the Packers to a thrilling 27-24 road win over the Miami Dolphins. The Packers appeared to be heading for a loss down, 24-20, with just over two minutes left. Rodgers down the field completed a 4th and 10, and later a 3rd and 10 play to keep the drive alive, before finding Andrew Quarless in the end zone on a four-yard pass with six seconds left. Back in Lambeau Field, a week later, the Packers cruised to a 38-17 win over the Carolina Panthers to win their fourth straight game after Aaron Rodgers asked fans to relax. Fans a tough time relaxing in Week 9 as a strained hamstring hampered Aaron Rodgers as the New Orleans Saints marched up and down the Superdome field with a 44-23 win in a game that featured no punts. Following a well-timed bye week, Aaron Rodgers showed no ill effect of the hamstring with a record six first-half touchdowns in a 55-14 win over the Bears at Lambeau Field. The game was highlighted by TD passes of 73 and 40 yards to Jordy Nelson and a 56-yard screen pass for a Touchdown to Eddie Lacy. The Packers would nearly match their Lambeau Field record-breaking score a week later, beating the Philadelphia Eagles 53-20. In the game, the Packers scored nearly every way imaginable, with Micah Hyde returning a punt 75 yards for a touchdown, Julius Peppers taking an interception back 52 yards, and Casey Hayward scooping a fumble 49 yards for a score, while Rodgers had another three TD passes. The next game would not be as easy, but the result was the same as the Packers held off a late rally to beat the Minnesota Vikings 24-21. In Week 13, Aaron Rodgers would face Tom Brady for the first time in his career as the Packers hosted the New England Patriots. The Packers looked sharp early, taking a 13-0 lead in the first quarter, with Aaron Rodgers connecting with Richard Rodgers on a 32-yard touchdown pass. Rodgers added a second touchdown in the second quarter, connecting with Jordy Nelson on a 45-yard score with 23 seconds left in the first half to take a 23-14 lead. The two team defenses settled down in the second half as the Patriots clawed to within two points. The lead would stand as the Packers could hold off the Patriots for a 26-21 win, successfully running out the clock on their last possession. The following Monday night, the Packers were firing on all cylinders as they built a 31-7 halftime lead against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons would make a furious comeback in the second half, but the Packers remained in front as Rodgers connected with Jordy Nelson on a 60-yard score, with the Packers holding on for a 43-37. A week later, things would not go as smoothly as Packer receivers dropped eight passes and Rodgers had two interceptions in a 21-13 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Aaron Rodgers struggled with a calf injury a week later. Still, he managed to lead the Pack to a 20-3 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to secure a playoff spot, as Eddie Lacy became the first Packers Running Back with 1,000 yards in his first two seasons in 40 years. In the final game of the season, the Packers hosted the Lions with the NFC North on the line. Fans in Green Bay had to hold their breath early as Aaron Rodgers was carted off the field, aggravating his sore calf. Rodgers returned in the second half with a TD pass and TD run, as the Packers won the game 30-20 and finished the season with a record of 12-4. Aaron Rodgers, who finished the year with 4,381 yards and 38 touchdowns, would go on to be named NFL MVP for the second time in his career. 2014 Playoffs:The Green Bay Packers would face the Dallas Cowboys at Lambeau Field in the playoffs for the first time since the Ice Bowl. It was cold but balmy in comparison at 24 degrees Fahrenheit. The Packers drew first blood, as Aaron Rodgers connected with Andrew Quarles on a four-yard score. The Cowboys, however, scored the next two touchdowns and held a 14-10 halftime lead. The Packers inched closer on a Mason Crosby Field Goal. The Cowboys would answer with a touchdown as their offensive line continue to open big holes for DeMarco Murray. Last, in the third quarter, the Packers answered as Rodgers hooked up with Davante Adams on a 46-yard touchdown pass that brought Lambeau Field to life. The Packers would retake the lead in the fourth as Aaron Rodgers connected with Richard Rodgers on a 13 yard TD score, his third game. The final nine minutes would be tense as the Packers missed the two-point try and led the game 26-21. The Cowboys got the ball down to the Packers 32 with just over two minutes left. At 4th down and 2, Tony Romo appeared to have completed a play down to the five for first and goal. However, Packers Coach Mike McCarthy challenged the play, and under further review, the ball slightly touched the ground as Dez Bryant attempted to secure the catch. The play was overturned, and the Packers would run out the clock and advanced to the NFC Championship. Back in Seattle, where the season began, the Packers faced the Seahawks with a trip to Super Bowl XLIX. The Packers had their chances to blow the game open early as two early interceptions set them up deep in Seattle territory. However, they had to settle for two chip shot field goals. Russell Wilson continued to struggle, and the Packers finally took advantage as Aaron Rodgers connected with Randall Cobb on a 13-yard score to end the first quarter with a 13-0 lead. The Packers would lead 16-0 at the half and were in firm control leading 19-7 when they picked off Wilson for the fourth time with just over five minutes remaining in the game. However, the Packers only managed to take 1:12 off the clock as the Seahawks used two-time outs. With one last chance, the Seahawks scored to cut the lead to 19-14, but with 2:09 left, they needed a miracle and an onside kick. The ball would bounce off the helmet of Brandon Bostick and gave the Seahawks the miracle they needed. It would not take long for the Seahawks to take the lead on a 24 yard run by Marshawn Lynch, adding a two-point conversion. Stunned and shaken, the Packers would get down the field and force overtime on a 48 yard field goal by Mason Crosby, though they never would see the ball again as the Seahawks took the opening possession of overtime and won the game 28-22 on a 35 yard Jermaine Kearse reception.
