Packers Hold Off Cowboys to Advance to NFC Championship


Mason Crosby, kicker for the Green Bay Packers, celebrates with quarterback Aaron Rodgers after kicking the game-winning field goal against the Dallas Cowboys in the final seconds of a NFC Divisional Playoff game. When kicker Mason Crosby connected with a 51-yard field goal as time expired, Green Bay escaped with a 34-31 victory to advance to the NFC Championship. Two plays earlier, Cowboys safety Jeff Heath had blitzed and sacked Rodgers for a 10-yard loss. “We have Davante [Adams] clearing out, Cook and [Randall] Cobb coming in over the next side.”“I saw [Rodgers] rolling,” Cook said. As Crosby set up for his final kick, Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett used his final timeout in an effort to ice the Packers kicker.
