Packers vs. Seahawks: Final Score & Recap

Final Score: Seahawks 36, Packers 16

The Seattle Seahawks raised their 2013 championship banner Thursday night, then kept the celebration going throughout the night.

Seattle overcame a first-quarter deficit Thursday against the Green Bay Packers and routed the Green Bay Packers 36-16 before a packed, raucous, sellout crowed at Century Link Field.

The Pack got 2 touchdown passes from Russell Wilson, 2 rushing touchdowns from Marshawn Lynch and even a safety as they steamrolled a team many have predicted to succeed the Hawks as Super Bowl champs.

Seattle’s vaunted defense frustrated Aaron Rodgers all night and held him without a touchdown pass until their fourth quarter.

Seattle trailed 7-3 after a John Kuhn touchdown in the first quarter, but the Hawks scored two second-quarter touchdowns to take a 17-10 lead into the half.

It was all Seattle after that.

Green Bay started a drive at its own 10-yard-line late in the third quarter and disaster ensued for the Pack. Michael Bennett sacked Aaron Rodgers and forced a fumble.

Derek Sherrod recovered the fumble for Green Bay, but the Seahawks’ Tony McDaniel tackeld him in the endzone for a safety, stretching Seattle’s lead to 22-10 with 4:42 left in the quarter.

Seattle scored again on its next possession when Marshawn Lynch rushed for his second touchdown of the night, making it 29-10 with 14:55 left in the game.

Green Bay finally got its first touchdown when Aaron Rodgers connected with Randall Cobb on a 3-yard touchdown strike with 9:31 left in the game. Green Bay went for 2 in an attempt to cut the deficit to 10, but Rodgers’ pass to Andrew Quarless was incomplete.

Seattle then stuck in the dagger when Russell Wilson hit Derrick COleman on a 15-yard touchdown strike with 2:31 left in the game that made it 36-16.
