In the second half, the Packers mounted a strong comeback attempt, racking up 363 yards and scoring 19 points. Midway through the fourth quarter, Green Bay defensive back Mark Lee's 22-yard interception return for a touchdown cut the Packers deficit to 30–26. But later on, Thurman's third interception set up a 74-yard scoring drive, including a trick play where receiver Drew Pearson took a lateral from Danny White and then threw a 49-yard completion to Tony Hill on the Green Bay 1-yard line. On the next play, Newhouse' second touchdown run put the game away.
