Eddie Lacy Sprints To The Pylon For Green Bay Packers TD (Video)
By Phil Watson
The Green Bay Packers are off to a fast start Sunday at Lambeau Field, with Eddie Lacy scoring a touchdown to put the Pack up 14-0 over the Carolina Panthers.
The Carolina Panthers might settle for a tie right now.
The Green Bay Packers are off to a white-hot start against the Panthers at Lambeau Field, taking a 14-0 lead with 5:53 to go in the first quarter on a 5-yard run by Eddie Lacy.
Lacy outran the defense to the pylon to score his fourth touchdown of the season to cap the Packers’ second straight scoring drive.
With 4:15 to go in the first quarter, the action has been pretty one-sided: Green Bay has eight first downs. Carolina has minus-4 total yards.
Green Bay had scored earlier in the game on a 59-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers to Jordy Nelson.
The Packers are coming off a thrilling, last-minute win at Miami last week, while the Panthers played to the NFL’s first tie this season at Cincinnati a week ago.
Green Bay has won three straight games since Rodgers famously told the Packer fan base to “relax” after the Pack got off to a 1-2 start.
Carolina, meanwhile, has the advantage of playing in the NFC South, where having the only winning record in the division at 3-2-1 has the Panthers in first place heading into Sunday’s game.
