Packers drub Redskins 35-18 to move to divisional round

On the season, Carson Palmer completed 63.7 percent of his passes for 4,671 yards and 35 touchdowns against 11 interceptions throughout the season.

Green Bay seemed to struggle for most of the season despite winning 10 games.

The Packers were beat up that day and at one point were playing without three starting offensive linemen.

Who’s Hot: Aaron Rodgers wasn’t phenomenal, but he surely wasn’t bad either.

Aaron Rodgers went 21 of 36 for 210 yards passing and threw a touchdown pass to Randall Cobb and Davante Adams.

The main thing going well for the Cardinals right now is just rest and the fact they’re at home where they generally play very well.

Whatever the reasons behind the rejuvenated offense, the Packers are feeling much better about themselves than this time last week.

Who’s Not: Adams is out with a leg injury, so there goes another of Rodgers’ targets.

Earlier on Sunday, Blair Walsh wrote his name into infamy when he missed a 27-yard field goal with just seconds remaining which would have put the Vikings through at the expense of last year’s beaten Super Bowl finalists, Seattle.

Three plays later, Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers was picked off by Justin Bethel in the end zone.

The Packers advanced to a showdown with the Arizona Cardinals next Saturday after overturning an 11-0 deficit at FedExField as the Redskins’ unlikely playoff campaign came to an abrupt end.

“I think I want to be where I am wanted”. Mike did a good job with personnel at times, tempo was key though, got the tempo up and they couldn’t keep up.

“The only thing that game we had against them a few weeks ago helped us with is that we got them on film against our defense, versus our scheme”, cornerback Jerraud Powers said.

The Packers defense played an excellent game against the Redskins, getting to the quarterback and limiting the run, but they did suffer against the pass. They need to improve in that department, because the Cardinals have a top-receiving core.

This is a different Packers team that’ll make the trek back to the desert this week.

Rodgers suggests that the Packers will be the looser team and should be, as if that will make them the better team. He started four games this year and is a key part of the defensive line rotation.

“Our defense making a goal-line stand was a huge turning point”, McCarthy said after the game. “That’s really it. We didn’t change anything up”.
