N.F.L. Playoffs: Packers and Aaron Rodgers Dominate Giants

In a wild-card matchup billed as a top offense against a top defense, offense asserted itself, and the Green Bay Packers rolled to a 38-13 victory over the Giants.

It was a slow start for Aaron Rodgers, but after the Packers finished the first quarter having been outgained by the Giants to the tune of 105 yards versus 7, the Packers’ quarterback found his way, throwing for four touchdowns and 362 passing yards.

The matchup bordered on boring for much of the first half, with the Giants taking a 6-0 lead, but then took a number of dramatic turns, with Rodgers shredding the Giants’ secondary, including completing yet another Hail Mary to add to his collection.
