The Green Bay Packers have had a few disappointments late in Aaron Rodgers' career on Lambeau Field in January. The feeling they had Sunday night isn't unfamiliar.
Those disappointments had always come in the playoffs though. This was different. The Packers had to beat a Detroit Lions team that had been eliminated from playoff contention just before kickoff to complete a remarkable late-season run and grab the final wild-card spot in the NFC. It was all in front of them.
The Packers lost 20-16. The Seattle Seahawks get the final NFC wild-card spot, thanks to a great effort by the Lions.
