Pre-Game 12:52: Game will be starting shortly. It's not quite as cold as the original Ice Bowl, but it's still pretty damn cold. 12:59: With a game-time temperature of 24 degrees, here are this afternoon's inactives. 1:00: Upvote if you're a temporary Packers fan. 1:02: Upvote if you're a permanent Packers fan. 1:04: Before kickoff, let's note some of the concession features at Lambeau today. First Quarter 1:05: Kickoff! Cowboys get the ball and are promptly three-and-out. 1:08: The eternal question of 'Will playoff Tony Romo appear?' has already been answered. 1:12: The Pack get a first-and-goal on a play called by Rodgers's yelling "NEW YORK BOZO!" 1:14: Eddie Lacy is already beasting. 1:16: Touchdown Packers! Rodgers pa**es to Quarless for the score. 1:21: Romo looks nervous. He's pa**ing to get the ball out of his hands, not to his receivers. 1:28: The Cowboys are driving on third down, but there's an injury. 1:30: Just a friendly reminder that both quarterbacks in this game were impressive this season. 1:32: This drive by the Cowboys has been aided by an uncharacteristic amount of penalties on Green Bay. 1:33: The Cowboys are right back in this one. Romo finds Tyler Clutts (great name for a wide receiver) for the 1-yard score. Second Quarter 1:44: The Packers pick up where they left off at the end of the first. Will they score? 1:46: A very deadly Packers drinking game: Take a shot every time Rodgers completes a pa** to a different receiver. 1:48: One of the best things about football games is seeing how some fans dress up. 1:50: Aaron Rodgers fumbles the ball after a quick snap from center Corey Linsley, giving the ball back to Dallas. 1:58: The Twitter world is still talking about two things: Clay Matthews' late hit on Tony Romo and New York Bozos. 2:00: Romo finds Terrence Williams for a 38-yard score. 2:04: We'll update you on the quarterback comparison before Fox does. 2:08: Is it s**y? Centers and guards? Not s**y. Going 12-4? Sexy.
2:10: Remember how Eddie Lacy was k**in' it? Not so much anymore. 2:13: Bro, sponsored by Kohl's. 2:17: This is an Aaron Rodgers game we haven't seen since 2009. 2:19: The Cowboys are dominating the possession game, leading the Packers 17:23 to 11:57. 2:21: Tony Romo doing his best Kate Winslet impression. 2:23: Dan Bailey terribly misses a 50-yard field goal attempt. Wide right. 2:29: Twitter throws shade at Fox for "Ice Bowl II". I hope we're exempt. 2:32: Mason Crosby nails a 40-yard field goal as time expires at the half. 14-10 Cowboys. Let's break down the stats. Halftime 2:45: Any modified predictions at the half? Third Quarter 2:48: Regardless of if the Packers made the 3rd-and-1, the fact that they have been quick to return to Lacy shows the right gameplan that began the first quarter for Green Bay. 2:52: Rodgers overthrows Cobb on 3rd down, but at least there's a new Green Bay attendance record? 2:52: Big loss for Dallas as Rolando McClain is confirmed out for the rest of the game. 2:59: Tony Romo just threw a pa** with his eyes closed. 3:00: Julius Peppers repents for his earlier harmful penalty. 3:02: Eddie Lacy just pounded out a CRUCIAL 29-yard run. 3:08: Mason Crosby connects on a 30-yard field goal to bring the Packers within one. 3:14: DeMarco Murray rattles off a big run to set up first and goal, then scores. Cowboys up 21-13. 3:15: Romo's a little banged up. Isn't he always? 3:28: Nihilists of the world erupt in...happiness? 46-yard touchdown pa** from Rodgers to Adams puts the Pack within one. Fourth Quarter 3:44: Want to know why we've been silent for sixteen minutes? We just watched a master at work. Rodgers to Rodgers for six. 3:45: Green Bay goes for two, misses. Packers lead by five, 26-21. 3:53: Dez Bryant hauls in a ridiculous catch to set the Cowboys up nicely for a potential score. 4:12: That's a wrap. Packers win 26-21 and will take on the Seahawks in the NFC Championship next weekend.
