GREEN BAY, WI – Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay offense continued to roll – even while the defense struggled – as the Packers improved to 10-3 on the season with a 43-37 victory over Atlanta on Monday night at Lambeau Field.
Rodgers was 24 of 36 for 327 yards and three touchdowns in the victory – including a pair of strikes to Jordy Nelson.
In a game in which the teams combined to put up nearly a thousand yards of total offense, Green Bay could never quite pull away.
Julio Jones set a new Falcons franchise record with 259 yards receiving on 11 catches before missing the game’s final minutes with an injury.
Kevin Harlan and Dan Fouts called the action on Westwood One.
