Falcons leading Packers at halftime, 24-0

ATLANTA – The Packers continued to hurt themselves and the Falcons continued to dominate, taking a 24-0 lead into halftime of Sunday’s NFC Championship Game at the Georgia Dome.

The Packers started the second quarter with passes of 17 and 22 yards to WR Randall Cobb. On third-and-4, QB Aaron Rodgers found TE Jared Cook for 5 yards to the Atlanta 23. FB Aaron Ripkowski then busted free on a run up the middle, but Falcons CB Jalen Collins stripped the ball at the 11-yard line and recovered it in the end zone for a touchback.
