GLENDALE, Ariz. - After scoring touchdowns on all five second-half possessions, you couldn't blame the Packers' offense for feeling like they were in position to win Sunday's Wild Card playoff contest in Arizona after Green Bay won the coin toss to start the extra session.

"We were fired up," wide receiver Donald Driver said. "We got the ball back. The first thing we said when we ran to the sidelines was like, 'It's over. We're going to win the game.'"

And if the Packers were going to win the game, wide receiver Greg Jennings said the focus was on having the offense finish the job on its own.

"There was no doubt in our mind that we couldn't put the ball in the end zone," Jennings said. "We weren't thinking field goal. I don't think a field goal crossed anybody's mind. I think with us having the opportunity to step back on the field, we were going to put it in. It just didn't work out for us."

The Packers took over at their own 20 after Neil Rackers..
