The Packers have taken charge in Atlanta.

Aaron Rodgers has thrown three touchdown passes, and the Packers hold a 21-13 lead.

Rodgers has thrown touchdown passes to Jordy Nelson, Trevor Davis and Geronimo Allison. Yes, Geronimo Allison. With a little over four minutes left before halftime, Rodgers is 16-of-20 for 149 yards.

Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones limped off at the end of the last possession, and trainers were examining his ankle on the sideline. Jones has three catches for 29 yards, and the Falcons will need him in trying to keep up.

Falcons tight end Jacob Tamme suffered a shoulder injury early in the game and has yet to return.
