Weekly Spotlight
Mason Crosby played the role of hero in the Packers' thrilling 33-30 win over the 49ers, knocking in a 27-yard game-winning field goal as time expired. Just a week removed from a tough outing, Crosby bounced back with a perfect performance Monday night. He converted all four field goal tries, including a 51-yarder that he kicked into an intense Green Bay wind early in the second half, while going 3-of-3 on PATs. Crosby accounted for 15 of the Packers' 33 points on Monday, bringing his season total to 56, the sixth-most in the league. His career total now stands at 1,401, the most in Packers' history, and the seventh-most among all active NFL players.Meanwhile, wide receiver Paul Richardson caught his second touchdown of the season in the Redskins' 23-17 win over the Panthers. On the day, Richardson brought in three of his five targets for 31 yards. His first catch of the game came in the back of the end zone for a 2-yard score that put the Redskins in front 14-0. He also hauled in a 21-yard reception on third-and-10 to keep a Redskins scoring drive alive.
