PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 9 (UPI) -- Aaron Rodgers threw three scoring passes Sunday and Green Bay survived a late challenge to defeat Philadelphia 21-16 in an NFC wild-card playoff contest.
Rodgers connected with Tom Crabtree on a 7-yard scoring strike and with James Jones on a 9-yarder in the first half en route to a 14-3 halftime lead, and his 16-yard TD toss to Brandon Jackson gave the Packers a decisive 21-10 lead in the third quarter.
