Green Bay — What looked like a dead football team in the first 18 minutes of the NFC wild-card playoff game late Sunday afternoon in Washington was transformed into a vibrant one over the last 42 minutes.
The Green Bay Packers outscored the Redskins, 35-7, in the final 2½ quarters to erase memories of their stagnant start and propel them into the divisional round Saturday night in Arizona.
Here is a rating of the Packers in their 35-18 victory, with their 1 to 5 football totals in parentheses:
