The Lion’s game at Green Bay started with a cruel, sadistic ‘poke in the eye’ miscue. Then the Lion’s defensive tide rolled in to drown Green Bay’s perpetual 12th man stadium crowd. Oh how bitter the bile of watching your Packers manage 20 yards of offence and 2 first downs in the game’s first half. It took an entire third period to remind the Lion’s the cost of resting on your laurels. By game’s end, Lion’s defensive rushers spent as much time in Green Bay’s backfield as the ball in play. .

D. Montgomery had a splendid performance with individual effort and maximising use of running lanes created by the offensive line. Goff had good protection and absorbed some hits from lingering decision making. No doubt, the rushing game coupled with Lion’s first down performance were keys to success.

Now, repetition is key to validating our 66 year of rebuilding is finally more than a fantasy. You shall be judged by the iron clad W/L statistic.
