In that game, the Packers would lose star quarterback Aaron Rodgers to a broken collarbone in the 1st quarter.  He would be replaced by Scott Tolzien and sometimes Matt Flynn.

The Packers would then beat the Falcons 22-21 to even their record at 6-6-1.  The following week, the Packers defeated the Dallas Cowboys 37-36 in Dallas after they had trailed 26-3 at halftime.  The comeback was the largest in franchise history.  The Packers would then lose a shootout with the Pittsburgh Steelers 38-31 at home to sit at 7-7-1, the first meeting between the teams since Super Bowl XLV.  The next week, the Packers defeated the Chicago Bears 33-28 at Soldier Field to clinch the NFC North in a game in which the winner would've clinched the division.

In the Divisional Playoffs at Candlestick the 49ers looked poised for a return to the NFC Championship leading the Dallas Cowboys 28-13 entering the 4th Quarter.
