3rd & 7 37yd

I don't have anything for you. Still early, however. #Packers ball security had been incredible throughout winning streak. twitter.com/kerg_in_wi/sta…

I don't understand why the ball isn't on the 1-yard line here.

by Jason Wilde via twitter 1/22/2017 8:52:52 PM
#Packers can't give up a touchdown on this drive, or it might be over.

by Ryan Wood via twitter 1/22/2017 8:53:04 PM
McCarthy can't challenge because it's a turnover play. Automatically reviewed. But I'm still confused.

by Jason Wilde via twitter 1/22/2017 8:53:26 PM
All turnover plays are automatically reviewed. twitter.com/MB34NJ/status/…

Ryan's arm got hit. And he still completed it.

by Lance Allan via twitter 1/22/2017 8:54:26 PM
Falcons' center Alex Mack leaves the game with an injury. His replacement is Ben Garland, who plays a little D-line as well. #Packers

by Michael Cohen via twitter 1/22/2017 8:57:09 PM
Ryan 14-19 170 yards already. Rodgers 8-10

by Lance Allan via twitter 1/22/2017 8:58:25 PM
A third-and-11. A third-and-8. A third-and-10.

#Packers D isn't even close to getting third-down stops.

by Ryan Wood via twitter 1/22/2017 8:59:18 PM
(Again)

Into the red zone.

Another third and long. 5-6 #Falcons converting

#MattyIce ❄️ RUNS FOR A TD!!!!!

Matt Ryan runs in a touchdown from 14 yards out. Falcons soon to go up 17-0. #Packers defense isn't even competitive right now.

by Ryan Wood via twitter 1/22/2017 9:00:46 PM
Something tells me "Matt Ryan rushing touchdown" wasn't on the scouting report. M-V-P chants raining down inside the Georgia Dome. #Packers

by Michael Cohen via twitter 1/22/2017 9:00:58 PM
Ryan waltzes into the end zone. 7 off the turnover. 17-0 at the midway point of the second quarter #Packers

by Lance Allan via twitter 1/22/2017 9:01:16 PM
What can't he do?

The Falcons lead 17-0 after Matt Ryan's TD run #GBvsATL

by Green Bay Packers via twitter 1/22/2017 9:01:32 PM
It's 17-0 Falcons with 7:24 remaining in the second quarter. Matt Ryan has 187 passing yards, 1 passing touchdown, 1 rushing touchdown.

by Michael Cohen via twitter 1/22/2017 9:01:43 PM
Aaron Rodgers on Friday: “I like the challenge. I like when the odds are stacked against you and the expectations are low." He's got it now.

by Jason Wilde via twitter 1/22/2017 9:02:15 PM

by Atlanta Falcons via twitter 1/22/2017 9:02:29 PM
Seem to remember a miraculous comeback last time #Packers played in NFC title game. Gonna take an even bigger miracle for them to win today.

by Ryan Wood via twitter 1/22/2017 9:03:21 PM
He doesn't kick field goals and he doesn't play defense. But he's got a 17-0 deficit full of adversity. You missed my point. twitter.com/packers_page/s…

by Jason Wilde via twitter 1/22/2017 9:03:21 PM
I guess when #Falcons HC Dan Quinn says his guts had their best practice Thursday and were flying around with great energy he wasn't kidding

by Lance Allan via twitter 1/22/2017 9:03:53 PM
Per @ESPNStatsInfo , that was Matt Ryan's first rushing touchdown since Week 1 of 2012.

Matt Ryan froze Packers LB Joe Thomas for his first rushing TD since Week 1 of the 2012 season. es.pn/2j2d0CL

by Rob Demovsky via twitter 1/22/2017 9:05:11 PM
#Packers had a 16-0 lead in 2014 NFC Championship and lost to #Seahawks . #Falcons had 17-0 lead in 2012 NFC Championship vs. 49ers and lost.

by Jason Wilde via twitter 1/22/2017 9:05:14 PM
Ty Montgomery is back in #GBvsATL

by Wes Hodkiewicz via twitter 1/22/2017 9:06:10 PM
Here's one bit of hope for Packers fans: The Falcons led 17-0 in their last appearance in the NFC Championship.... es.pn/2j26n3i

by Rob Demovsky via twitter 1/22/2017 9:06:18 PM
For a man with broken ribs, that's a really tough catch #Packers WR Jordy Nelson just made.

by Ryan Wood via twitter 1/22/2017 9:07:00 PM
With that catch, WR Jordy Nelson now has the most receptions in #Packers postseason history with 51. #GBvsATL

by Green Bay Packers via twitter 1/22/2017 9:07:00 PM
Defense with another big stop to give the ball back to the offense.

#RiseUp t.co

by Atlanta Falcons via twitter 1/22/2017 9:09:00 PM
Three and out. Not good. But schum kicked it 58 yards #Packers

by Lance Allan via twitter 1/22/2017 9:09:11 PM
Atlanta will start this series from its 23 after Jake Schum's 58-yard punt #GBvsATL #GoPackGo

by Green Bay Packers via twitter 1/22/2017 9:09:26 PM
#Packers go three and out. Awful possession and Rodgers got drilled. Falcons can really make things difficult with a touchdown here.

by Michael Cohen via twitter 1/22/2017 9:09:31 PM
Rodgers got hit hard during that three-and-out possession. Nothing going right for #Packers at the moment.

by Jason Wilde via twitter 1/22/2017 9:10:13 PM
Two big differences early: #Packers offense not playing perfect (it pretty much needed to), and defense not forcing turnovers.

by Ryan Wood via twitter 1/22/2017 9:10:27 PM
Missed tackles taking a toll #Packers

by Lance Allan via twitter 1/22/2017 9:12:26 PM
The Packers have overcome one 17-point deficit the last two seasons. It was the Hail Mary game vs. Detroit last... es.pn/2khqQpZ

by Rob Demovsky via twitter 1/22/2017 9:12:28 PM
Hey, #Packers finally got a third-down stop. Finally made Falcons pay for a mistake. Something to build off of.

by Ryan Wood via twitter 1/22/2017 9:14:04 PM
#Packers miss out on fumble recovery. But they do get a stop and force the first #Falcons punt of the day

by Lance Allan via twitter 1/22/2017 9:14:24 PM
#Packers catch a break with the fumble on second down. Forces a three-and-out. Big stop for the defense.
