Wisconsin State Journal columnist Tom Oates grades the Green Bay Packers' performance in their 34-20 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday at Lambeau Field in Green Bay.

Offense: B

Green Bay was 7-for-13 on third-down conversions, only the second time it was above 50 percent all season. Aaron Rodgers scrambled three times for 44 back-breaking yards. Aaron Jones had 99 total yards in the second half. Atlanta had three third-down sacks in the first half but Green Bay's makeshift line improved after that.

Defense: B

Atlanta had only 200 yards and seven points through three quarters. Bashaud Breeland's pick-six was the defense's first score all season. Jaire Alexander shadowed Julio Jones most of the time and held his own after allowing two controversial early catches. After a quiet season, Clay Matthews made two Clay Matthews plays.

Special teams: C
