You were warned, Green Bay Packers. Your special teams were the NFL’s worst, and that’s the primary thing that took you out of the playoffs.
The San Francisco 49ers, who never led in their 13-10 shocking win until Robbie Gould’s 45-yard field goal as time expired, also didn’t score an offensive or defensive touchdown in the game. There were two Gould field goals, and a six-yard return of a blocked punt by safety Talanoa Hufanga, and that’s all the 49ers needed. Mason Crosby made one of his two field goal attempts; the other was blocked by safety Jimmie Ward.
And in perhaps the most embarrassing portion of this particular implosion, the Packers had just 10 men on the field for Gould’s game-winner — and this came after San Francisco’s third time out of the half with four seconds left, which allowed them to get their guys in place.
