Green Bay Packers: Wild Card round special teams recap

The offense began slow and lost Jordy Nelson, but came alive to score in bunches.

The defense held up surprisingly well (albeit helped by drops from the Giants), helping keep the score close while Green Bay worked to find themselves offensively.

The special teams had their own key role here as well.

Here’s how that went for the Packers, starting with …

Kickoffs:

1. NYG 4; 24 yard return (NYG 28)
2. NYG 1; 31 yard return (NYG 32)
3. NYG 3; No Gain (NYG 3)
4. Touchback
5. NYG 9; 24 yard return (NYG 33)
6. NYG 0; 24 yard return (NYG 24)

Scoring:

• Extra points: 5/5
• Field goals: 1/1 (Made: 32)

It was a mostly routine evening from Green Bay’s reliable kicker.
