The sale of 268,000 shares netted $67 million of $143 million needed for expansion of the south end zone. • Charitable grants by the Packers Foundation totaled $6 million. • The NFL’s lockout of officials ended on September 26, two days after the “Fail Mary” debacle in Seattle. The call ultimately cost the Packers a home playoff game against the 49ers. • Aaron Rodgers had another incredible season. He threw for over 4,000 yards with 40 touchdowns and six interceptions. • After starting the season 2-3, the Packers went a 9-1 as they got healthier and stronger. The offense wasn’t as strong as 2011, but the defense improved significantly. SAN FRANCSCO 49ers 30 9.9.2012 PACKERS 22 Former #1 draft choices Aaron Rodgers and Alex Smith met for the second time in their careers. In a battle of two NFC heavyweights, Smith came out on top. San Francisco defeated Green Bay for the first time since 1998 (8 games). The Packers’ powerful offense struggled most of the game against the Niners highly regarded defense. Green Bay’s no-huddle offense had little success, and it was abandoned in the second half. The 49ers had the advantage in the first half, and David Akers’ 63-yard field goal tied an NFL record. Both quarterbacks threw touchdown passes, and San Francisco led at halftime 16-7.
