The Packers held on for an important win in Week 13.

The Green Bay Packers allowed the game to get a little closer than it should, but they held on for a crucial victory over the Philadelphia Eagles to improve to 9-3 on the year and move a step closer to the postseason.

A Mason Crosby field goal gave the Packers a 23-3 lead in the fourth quarter, but in a flash that score was cut to 23-16 and suddenly we had a game.
