The eleventh Sunday night went to the scene to Fed Ex Field in Landover, home of the Washington Redskins that hosted the Green Bay Packers in the ugliest moment of their last decade. The first half of the first fourth was dominated by defenses with Green Bay unable to get a first down in its first three drives, across Washington did something more thanks to a couple of races also favored by the absence of middle linebacker Jake Ryan who is a chiavo element for stopping the opponent racing game. The Redskins to their third and final drive of the first quarter they were able to march up to the opposing redzone thanks to short passes and some running between the tackles, once you get 13 yards on Cousins ​​made from a perfect pass from the shotgun to DeSean Jackson that with a post route he has not only beaten the marking of Micha Hide man but also the cover 2 of the safeties of the Packers scoring the first touchdown of the game. Early in the second quarter guests responded for the hosts with a "west coast" attack made short throws (slants, crossing routes and out), however, without running the ball, this has led to Rodgers having successfully converting two quarters down and once arrived near the endzone has made a magic of his running away to a couple of tackles one of which result in a face mask penalty and throwing off balance to Jordy Nelson for their first touchdown of the evening. Thanks to a good defensive sequence its defense that forced Washington's offense on a three and out, Green Bay could still attack this time did so by balancing with some runs in order to remove pressure from Rodgers that has continued to do damage to the opposing defense with short, precise throws until the left outside linebacker Kerrigan on a third goal and was able to tackle him forcing the kicker Mason Crosby to kick and to make a field goal from 37 yards. The following drives the reaction of the Redskins went from Cousins ​​and Reed duo that virtually alone have led their team behind dell'endzone through tracks ran perfectly and launches at the right time to make the most of, when there were a dozen yards the touchdown Cousins ​​handed the ball to running back Robert Kelley with a central race marked his first touchdown of the evening. Washington started the third quarter with possession of the ball by moving the ball both cn races that with the steps up to the future hall of fame Julius Peppers has ended their drive with a sack on third down that forced the kicker Dustin Hopkins to kick and make a field goal from 37 yards. Under the six-point Green Bay moved the ball until you get into field goal range with a couple of throws, the first for Jared Cook and according to Randall Cobb but when it was time to kick the field goal from 37 yards veteran kicker Mason Crosby missed kicking wide left of the pole. Attack of the Redskins starting at its own 26 yard line put us only seven plays to score a touchdown, a receiving Jamison Crowder on a vertical Seem from the slot beating even the cover 2 of the Packers who once again failed to intervene with the safeties, following the touchdown Washington has tried the second conversion of two points of the game by collecting the second failure on a quarterback rush Cousins ​​blocked well from the defensive line of the Packers. The fourth quarter began with two touchdowns in 24 seconds, the first a reception of the Packers running back James Starks along well-placed blocks in front of him was able to carry the ball for 31 yards to the end zone, the second it arrived from Pierre Garcon that driving on a deep post beating once again the secondary of the Packers managed to score a touchdown from 70 yards receiving a perfect pass to Cousins ​​that the deep throws was flawless today. The escalation touchdown did not stop seeing that guests are able to quickly move behind dell'endzone thanks to a balanced drive featured a big play of Cobb, when there were few yards to the touchdown Rodgers has entrusted to tight end Cook that thanks to a slant route was released and received the number one TD pass of the season. Unfortunately for the Packers their defense has not been able to stop the attack of the Redskins with two touchdown Kelley of consecutive race set the score at 42-24 in favor of the hosts.
The problem for Green Bay in this match was too much predictability in attack saw the total lack of running game with a defense that continues to suffer more than 40 points per game making it nearly impossible to win. Across Washington has played a great game, definitely the best year offensively speaking, but also in defense at key moments in the rectum as well against a great quarterback is Aaron Rodgers.
