2015 IN REVIEW

After their heartbreaking loss in the NFC Championship Game, the Green Bay Packers looked to rebound and took the next step. However, before the season even started, they were dealt some bad news when leading receiver Jordy Nelson was lost for the entire season after tearing his ACL in a pre-season game. The Packers opened against the rival Chicago Bears on the road, winning 31-23 as Aaron Rodgers had three touchdown passes, two of which were to James Jones, who returned to Green Bay at the end of training camp to replace Nelson. In the Sunday Night home opener, the Packers faced the Seattle Seahawks in a rematch of the NFC title game. Early on, things looked good for the Packers as they held a 13-3 lead at the half. In the third quarter, Seattle would come out and turn things around, scoring twice to take the lead. The Packers’ defense would stiffen and not allow anything else as they intercepted Russell Wilson twice. Meanwhile, the Packers regained the lead in the fourth quarter as Aaron Rodgers connected with Richard Rodgers on a five-yard pass play. The Packers would go on to win the game 27-17. As the NFL was celebrating the 50 years of Super Bowls, the Packers faced the Kansas City Chiefs in a rematch of Super Bowl I on Monday Night Football at Lambeau Field. With Aaron Rodgers passing for 333 yards, with five touchdowns, the Packers would improve to 3-0 with a 38-28 win. A week later, the Packers defense carried the day, as they finally solved Colin Kaepernick and beat the San Francisco 49ers 17-3 at Levi’s Stadium. Returning home the Packers, improved to 5-0 with a 24-10 win over the St. Louis Rams. The only negative was Aaron Rodgers throwing his first interception at Lambeau Field since 2012. The Packers’ defense would get four picks of their own, including one returned 45 yards for a touchdown by Quinten Rollins. A week later, the Packers survived a 503-yard passing game from Phillip Rivers to beat the San Diego Chargers 27-20 as Damarious Randall deflected away a potential game-tying score as time expired. Leading the Packers’ offense was James Starks, who rushed for 112 yards, highlighted by a 65-yard run for a touchdown in the first quarter. Following their bye week, the Packers faced the Denver Broncos on the road in a battle of unbeaten teams. The Packers got a double dose of bad news, as Cornerbacks Damarious Randall and Quinten Rollins suffered shoulder injuries. This opened the door for Peyton Manning to have one of the season’s best games, passing for 340 yards. Aaron Rodgers against the top-rated Broncos defense was not as fortunate as he was hammered all game and held to 77 yards as the Broncos won the game 29-10. A week later, the Packers facing the top offensive team were steamrolled in the second quarter, allowing the Carolina Panthers to score 24 unanswered points. Down 27-7 at the half, the Packers got back in the game with Aaron Rodgers hooking up with Randall Cobb on a 53-yard score. However, the Panthers would answer and extended the lead to 37-14 in the fourth quarter. The Packers would get two late scores from James Starks but could get no closer, losing a second straight game 37-29. A week later, the Packers returned home and saw their offense stall, as the Detroit Lions won in Lambeau Field for the first time since 1991. The Packers nearly pulled off a miracle comeback in the game as Aaron Rodgers had two scores in the final two minutes, but a game-tying two-point try failed, and the Lions held on to an 18-16 victory. During the three straight losses, the Packers’ lack of a running game became a sore spot, as Eddie Lacy, who showed up at the start of the season out of shape, struggled all season, rushing for just 758 yards with three touchdowns while he fumbled four times. With first place on the line, the Packers got back on track with a 30-13 road win against the Minnesota Vikings as Aaron Rodgers 27-yard pass to James Jones in the back corner of the endzone proved to be the difference, while Mason Crosby had a big game with five Field Goals. Four nights later, the Packers hosted the Chicago Bears in a Thanksgiving Night Game. At the half, the Packers retired Brett Favre’s #4 jersey. Unfortunately, that would be the lone highlight as the Packers struggled in the rain, losing 17-13. A week later, in another Thursday Night Game at Ford Field, the Packers appeared to be heading for another loss as the Lions raced out to a 17-0 lead in the first quarter. The Lions would eventually add Field Goal before the Packers finally answered in the third quarter, with Randall Cobb finding fortune and recovering a fumble in the endzone. However, the Lions were still in control as the Packers trailed 23-21 with no time outs and the ball on their own 21 with just 23 seconds left. After two incomplete passes, the Packers needed a miracle with six seconds left. Trying to lateral the ball down the field, the game appeared to be over as Aaron Rodgers was taken down at the 24 as time expired. However, Devin Taylor grabbed Rodgers’ facemask, giving the Packers one more chance as a game cannot end on a defensive penalty. Still facing long odds at their own 39, Aaron Rodgers, running around out of the shotgun, heaved the ball as far as he could. The ball, which nearly hit the rafters at Ford Field, came down some 68 yards later and found the arms of Richard Rodgers, who caught the Motown Miracle pass to win the game 27-23. Aaron Rodgers’ pass was the longest game-winning Hail Mary play in NFL history. After their surprising reprieve, the Packers won their next two games, beating the Dallas Cowboys and Oakland Raiders to clinch a playoff spot. The Packers, though, would struggle in their last two games, suffering an ugly 38-8 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on the road, as Aaron Rodgers had perhaps the worst game of his career as he was sacked eight times and had two fumbles returned for touchdowns. The Packers would end the regular season at home, facing the Vikings at Lambeau Field, with the winner getting the NFC North title. The Packers were sloppy again, falling behind 20-3 on a 55-yard fumble return by Captain Munnerlyn. The Packers made a late charge but fell short, losing 20-13 as they settled for the Wild Card with a record of 10-6...2015 Playoffs: In the Wild Card round, the Green Bay Packers faced the surprising Washington Redskins. Early on, things did not look good for the Packers as they trailed 11-0 early in the second quarter. The Packers, though, quickly turned things around, scoring on the next three possessions to take a 17-11 lead at the half, with Devante Adams catching a ten-yard pass from Aaron Rodgers with 28 seconds left. After the Redskins regained the lead, the Packers using an 11-play 80-yard drive, took control of the game for good. Adding an Eddie Lacy score and Mason Crosby Field Goal in the fourth quarter, the Packers would win the game 35-18 to advance to the Divisional Round. The Packers returned to the sight of their worst game of the season, facing the Arizona Cardinals just three weeks after being embarrassed in the desert in Week 16. The Packers would play a much more competitive game, as they held the Cardinals to one touchdown in the first half and trailed 7-6 at the start of the third quarter. With Jeff Janis catching an eight-yard pass from Aaron Rodgers, the Packers took a 13-7 lead in the third quarter. Still leading, 13-10, the Packers remained in front when Damarious Randall picked off Carson Palmer in the endzone. The lead would stand until late in the fourth quarter when Randall nearly picked off Palmer again, but this time the ball went through his hands and into Michael Floyd’s arms to put Arizona in front 17-13. After a three and out, the Cardinals stretched the lead to 20-13, putting the Packers on the brink. Green Bay needed another miracle as they got the ball on their own 14-yard line with no timeouts. After two incompletions and a sack, the Packers faced 4th down and long on their own four-yard line. Once again, Aaron Rodgers threw up a prayer, this time Jeff Janis answered it at the Arizona 36. With time ticking away, the Packers lined up to clock the ball, but an offside penalty cost them five yards and ten seconds, pushing the ball back to the 41 as they had just five seconds to score. Scrambling left, Rodgers heaved another prayer up as Markus Golden leveled him. Once again, Jeff Janis answered the prayer catching the pass in the endzone to tie the game at the end of regulation. The first time in postseason history was that a team had a game-tying touchdown on the last play of regulation. However, the second miracle ending would not result in a win, as the Cardinals won the overtime coin toss and went 80 yards on three plays with Larry Fitzgerald’s catch and run through the Green Bay defense taking the ball 75 yards on the first play taking the wind out of their sales. Fitzgerald would score two plays later on a five-yard pass from Palmer to win the game for the Cardinals 26-20. (Source: Sportsecyclopedia)
