• Ravens' Steve Smith catches tipped pass for first TD against Panthers​

Rodgers eluded the Bears pass rush to drop a pass over two Chicago defenders and into the hands of tight end Andrew Quarless. A holding penalty on center Corey Linsley nullified the touchdown, however, and set the Packers up with a 3rd-and-17 from the Chicago 45-yard line. 

• Pittsburgh Steelers' Antonio Brown scores, does an awesome dance (GIF)​

Rodgers connected with Jordy Nelson on the next play to move the Packers into range for a Mason Crosby 53-yard field goal, which extended the Green Bay lead to 24-17.
