Lambeau Field
Green Bay, Wisconsin
Packers 17 - Seahawks 9
If you like defense, this was the game for you. Neither offense could move the ball for a majority of the first half. And it wasn't due to bad offense... more effective and efficient defense by both the Packers and Seahawks. For Seattle, that is expected. For Green Bay, not to much.
Seattle entered halftime with a 3-0 lead. The Packers offense struggled to complete extended drives against the Seahawks stout defense. Finally, a Mike Daniels strip sack gave the Packers possession on the Seattle five yard line. One play later Ty Montgomery punched the ball into the end zone to give the Packers the lead for good. Later in the game, Rodgers connected with Jordy Nelson to extend the Packers lead.
The defense played very well. They were physical and brought pressure all game.
We will have to see how they hold up next week against the high speed offense of Atlanta.
