Final Third Quarter GB 42 SEA 20, SNOW 1-2 Inches

Seattle after scoring 14 points on turnovers in the first 5-6 minutes of the game, is getting its ass kicked.

The snow is piling up. Machines are rolling up and down the sidelines, trying to keep the lines visible.

Brett Favre and Ryan Grant are unstoppable.

Ryan Grant lost two fumbles as the Seattle Seahawks jumped out to an early lead, but the Green Bay running back redeemed himself with a pair of short touchdown runs as the Packers rallied to take a 28-17 lead at halftime of Saturday's divisional playoff game.

Grant earned most of the credit for a revitalized Packers running game in the second half of the season, but his mistakes helped put the Packers in an early 14-0 hole at snowy Lambeau Field.

Favre then got going, throwing two touchdown passes to wide receiver Greg Jennings, and Grant did the heavy lifting on Green Bay's second scoring drive.
Damn near every major Packer is having a career day. Damn.

And the snow keeps coming down.
