Sporting News tracked live scores, updates and highlights from the Week 12 "Sunday Night Football" game between the 49ers and Packers. The 49ers' slate offers no respite, though, with trips to Baltimore and New Orleans on the horizon. The Packers' schedule eases up considerably going forward, with games against the Giants and Redskins over the next two weeks. The second half was mercifully brief each team had three possessions after halftime. Niners tight end George Kittle broke wide open over the middle for a 61-yard score, which accounting for almost half of his 129 receiving yards. Green Bay got on the board late in the third quarter, only for San Francisco to answer emphatically. Rodgers had a respectable 20-for-33 completion mark but earned a paltry 104 yards on those completions. Garoppolo finished 14 for 20 for 253 yards through the air, with two scores and no interceptions.
