GREEN BAY – Packers QB Brett Hundley threw interceptions on Green Bay's first two drives, and the Ravens ended a scoreless first quarter in field-goal range on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

The Ravens won the toss and deferred, so the Packers got the ball first. WR Trevor Davis returned the kickoff to the 32 and QB Brett Hundley promptly hit WR Jordy Nelson for 17 yards on the first play from scrimmage. It was Nelson's 531st career reception, moving him into third on the Packers' all-time list.

After an 8-yard run by RB Jamaal Williams, Hundley went deep to WR Davante Adams for 33 yards, making it first-and-goal on the 10. After an offside call put the ball on the 5, Hundley tried to hit WR Randall Cobb in the end zone, but Baltimore CB Jimmy Smith stepped in front to pick the ball off, ending a promising opening drive.

QB Joe Flacco got the Ravens moving with passes of 17 yards to WR Mike Wallace and 11 yards to WR Jeremy Maclin. Four plays later, RB Alex Collins plowed ahead for 5 yards on fourth-and-1 from the Green Bay 41. The next snap, in shotgun, went over Flacco's head and Collins recovered for a loss of 14. On third-and-long, LB Clay Matthews sacked Flacco, and Baltimore had to punt.

Hundley picked up two first downs with passes to Nelson and Williams, but he then threw his second interception of the day to S Eric Weddle, trying to go deep downfield to TE Lance Kendricks. Throwing off-balance, Hundley didn't get nearly enough on it, and it was an easy pick at the Baltimore 39.

A 16-yard pass to Wallace, a tripping penalty on LB Blake Martinez, and a near-interception by S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix set up third-and-6 at the Green Bay 26. Flacco found RB Danny Woodhead for 7 yards and a first down. The Packers stopped the next third down on a run by Collins, though, making it fourth down on the Green Bay 15 as the quarter expired.
