Instead of taking their first lead of the game, the Packers watched the Patriots march to back-to-back scores and put away a 31-17 victory on Sunday night. “It was obviously a big play in the game,” Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy said. Last week, the Rams kicked a field goal to take a 29-27 lead with 2:05 to play. But Packers kickoff returner Ty Montgomery brought the ball out of the end zone and fumbled, costing Rodgers a chance for a game-winning drive. Against New England, the Packers also settled for a field goal in the first quarter after a delay of game penalty at the 9.
