Packers kicker Mason Crosby missed five kicks in a loss to the Lions last week. On Monday, however, he hit the game-winning kick to give Green Bay a 33-30 win over the San Francisco 49ers.
Crosby's 27-yard effort capped a frenetic comeback from the Packers, who improbably trailed the C.J. Beathard-led 49ers by a touchdown late in the fourth quarter.

Aaron Rodgers threw for 425 yards and two touchdowns, ultimately overcoming San Francisco's clicking offense with his late-game ability.
Green Bay lifts to 3-2-1 to stay close to the lead in the tight NFC North.
Beathard was 16 of 23 passing for 245 yards, two touchdowns and a pick.
The 49ers are now 1-5 and without quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who tore his ACL and is sidelined for the remainder of the season.
