On the ensuing drive, LB Tamba Hali sacked Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers and caused a fumble, marking his 10th sack of the season. Hali finished the day with 3.0 sacks, giving him 53.5 for his career, which moves him into fourth place in team history. Later in the drive, Packers K Mason Crosby missed a 54-yard field goal attempt wide right to keep the score at 3-0 in the Chiefs favor. Succop added a 32-yard field goal with 0:11 left in the first quarter to increase the lead to 6-0. The scoring drive covered nine plays and 42 yards in 3:58. The Chiefs later drove down to the Green Bay threeyard line, but were stopped when RB Jackie Battle was held up on fourth down with 3:28 left in the first half. Both defenses held throughout the second quarter as the score remained 6-0 at halftime. On the first drive of the second half, LB Derrick Johnson stuffed FB John Kuhn on third and one to force a punt. Green Bay took a 7-6 lead on a two-yard touchdown pass from Rodgers to WR Donald Driver with 8:04 left in the third quarter. The scoring drive lasted six plays and covered 54 yards in 2:21. On the following drive, Succop connected on his third field goal of the game from 46 yards to regain the lead at 9-7, capping a seven-play, 61-yard drive in 4:19. The big play on the scoring march was a 39-yard pass from Orton to TE Leonard Pope.

Just 11 seconds into the fourth, the Chiefs defense held on fourth down. After the Chiefs took over on downs, Orton connected with WR Steve Breaston on a 16-yard pass and FB Le Ron McClain rushed for nine yards before Orton found Pope on a 33-yard pass down to the Green Bay three-yard line. Succop s fourth field goal of the game came from 20 yards out and increased the lead to For Succop, it was his 21st-consecutive made field goal, tying for the second-longest streak in franchise history. On the following possession, the Chiefs defense again held, led by DL Allen Bailey s first career sack and a crucial run stuff for no gain by DE Wallace Gilberry. Following the punt, Orton led the Chiefs on the game-clinching eight-play, 66-yard touchdown drive in 3:27, culminating with a one-yard scoring plunge by Battle. Breaston began the drive with a 25-yard run and Orton hooked up with WR Dwayne Bowe on a 13-yard pass and found TE Anthony Becht for 16 yards down to the five-yard line. Rodgers promptly led Green Bay down the field on a nine-play, 80-yard scoring march in 2:49, finishing it off with his own eight-yard touchdown scramble. After the Packers onside kick went out of bounds, RBs Thomas Jones and Battle rushed for first downs to run out the clock, marking the first time that Green Bay has lost in nearly a calendar year.
