After a quick look at the stats you might think Green Bay won the game but ‘turnovers’ were what sealed the deal for Detroit. Early on Goff was slightly erratic and the Lions did not molest Rodgers. As Detroit’s running game gained traction, momentum seemed to shift. Hutchington’s efforts reduced Rodgers the luxury of time combined with atypical errant throws and dropped receptions were apparent. Detroit’s Anzalone play helped stymie Packer’s run game. Detroit’s offensive line made Goff’s passing and William’s effort running the ball successful.

The game’s ending sequence of plays hopefully portend good things for the Lion’s future. They bent but didn’t fold and credit should be ascribed to the coaching staff. Particularly, the non Lion’s ‘gutsy’ pass play on 4th and one.

What better way to walk off the field at season’s end by denying the Green Bay ‘Baba Yage’ entry into the playoffs.
