The Green Bay Packers hold a 24-point lead over the Atlanta Falcons at the break in their NFL clash with the scores at 31-7 at Lambeau Field.
The Packers started the game on the front foot as Aaron Rodgers led his side downfield before handing the ball off to James Starks on the three-yard line to rush in for the three-yard touchdown.
Atlanta were able to hit back when Matt Ryan strung a series of passes together to shift his side into the redzone, and he was able to hand off to Steven Jackson, who levelled the scores with a four-yard rush.
At the start of the second quarter, Eddie Lacy powered through the line on more than one occasion for big gains to get his side rolling again and they reached the redzone where Rodgers handed off again, and the 24-year-old found the endzone with a one-yard rush.
The Packers had the opportunity to push further ahead as Rodgers once again guided his side into Falcons' territory, but this time he couldn't find an open man and was forced to settle for a 38-yard field goal from Mason Crosby.
Ryan then committed a costly turnover for the visitors as he picked out Morgan Burnett on the sideline when trying to find touch. The defensive back put the ball into the redzone with the return and Rodgers notched his first touchdown strike of the game with a shovel pass to Lacy.
Green Bay extended their lead just before the break as Rodgers showed his mobility in the pocket to evade the rush of the Falcons before delivering a strike to Jordy Nelson in the endzone.
