2016 IN REVIEW

The Green Bay Packers entered the season with their usual high expectations. Beginning the season on a hot afternoon in Northern Florida, the Packers outlasted the Jacksonville Jaguars 27-23, holding off a later drive to start the season with a win. A week later, the Packers helped the Minnesota Vikings open their new stadium in a Sunday Night Divisional showdown. The Packers drew first blood, as Jordy Nelson scored the first touchdown at U.S. Bank Stadium on a one-yard catch from Aaron Rodgers. The Packers would not score again until the fourth quarter, while the Vikings won the game 17-14 to take the early lead in the battle for the NFC North. In the Packers’ first game of the year at Lambeau Field, Aaron Rodgers had four touchdown passes in a 34-27 win over the Detroit Lions. The Packers would get their bye week early in the season, as they faced the New York Giants in a Sunday Night Showdown against the New York Giants in Week 5. The Packers did just enough to win the game 23-16 as Aaron Rodgers had a pair of touchdowns, while Mason Crosby had three field goals. Wearing throwback uniforms a week later, the Packers came out flat as the Dallas Cowboys won at Lambeau Field for just the second time by a score of 30-16. Four days later, wearing all white at home, the Packers with Rodgers leading the way with 326 yards with three touchdowns, beat the Chicago Bears 26-10. In Week 8, Rodgers again carried the load, passing for 246 with four scores, but it was not enough as the Atlanta Falcons rallied to win the game 33-32. The Falcons won the back and forth contest on an 11-play 75-yard drive that was capped with a touchdown catch by Mohamed Sanu with 36 seconds left. The loss in Atlanta sent the Packers reeling as they would lose four in a row playing a brand of defense that was downright embarrassing as they suffered a 31-26 loss at home to the Indianapolis Colts, which were followed up by a 47-25 loss to the Tennessee Titans and a 42-24 loss to the Washington Redskins on the road. Sitting at 4-6, the Packers season was on the brink of imploding when Aaron Rodgers sent words of encouragement that they could still reach the playoffs if they “Ran the Table.” Rodgers started the run in a Monday night game, passing for 313 yards with a pair of touchdowns in a 27-13 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. A week later, the Packers returned home and beat the Houston Texans 21-13 in the snow at Lambeau Field. The Packers’ surge continued with a 38-10 win over the Seattle Seahawks as the Packers’ defense picked off Russell Wilson five times to improve to 7-6 on the season. Facing the Chicago Bears in Week 16, the Packers saw a 17-point evaporate in the fourth quarter. With the game tied 27-27, Aaron Rodgers completed a 60-yard pass to Jordy Nelson to set up Mason Crosby for a game-winning 32-yard field goal. A week later, with the division title on the line, Aaron Rodgers passed for 300 yards with four touchdowns to beat the Detroit Lions at Ford Field 31-24 to finish the season with a record of 10-6. Aaron Rodgers had another solid season, passing for 4,428 yards with 40 touchdowns. This was extra important as the Packers struggled to find consistency in the running game, as Eddie Lacy had a disappointing season with 360 yards in five games without scoring a touchdown...2016 Playoffs: The Green Bay Packers would host the New York Giants with wind chill temperatures below zero in the Wild Card round. The Packers got off to a slow start as the Giants held a 6-0 lead late in the second quarter. Green Bay finally got on the board thanks in part to some strong special teams as punter Jake Schum pinned the Giants deep in their own territory. When the Giants were unable to get out of the shadow of their end zone, Micah Hyde took a short punt to the New York 38-yard line to get the Packers the jump start they needed. Aaron Rodgers needed just three plays to get Green Bay into the end zone, to take the lead. The Packers were not done as Rodgers hit Randall Cobb on a 42-yard Hail Mary to end the first half with a 14-6 lead. The Giants battled back in the third quarter, cutting the Packers’ lead to 14-13. Green Bay would answer on the ensuing possession as Cobb caught a 30-yard pass to break the Giants’ spirits. The Packers would add a field goal by Mason Crosby and pulled away down the stretch, winning the game 38-13. The Packers would move on to face the Dallas Cowboys in the Divisional Round. Things looked good early for the Packers 21-3, with Ty Montgomery scoring a pair of touchdowns in the second quarter. After Dallas battled back to make it 21-13 at the end of the first half, the Packers got a second touchdown pass by Rodgers to take a 28-13 lead into the fourth quarter. The Cowboys battled back with a pair of Dak Prescott touchdown passes in the fourth quarter. The Packers would retake the lead on a 56-yard field goal by Mason Crosby with 1:33 left. However, the Cowboys answered with a 52-yard boot from Dan Bailey to even the score 31-31 with 35 seconds on the clock. With time running down, the Rodgers threw up another prayer to Jared Cook, who barely stayed in bounds at the Dallas 33-yard line. This set up Crosby to win the game with the game 34-31 on a 51-yard field goal. After their dramatic win in Dallas, the Packers returned to the spot of their most frustrating loss in the regular season facing the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC Championship Game. It was clear early that it was not Green Bay’s Day, as the Falcons jumped out to a 24-0 lead in the first half. The Falcons would cruise the rest of the way, winning 44-21 to advance to Super Bowl LI. (Source: Sportsecyclopedia)
