Packers overpowered by Lions at Lambeau

Thousands in Honolulu blue looked comfortable at Lambeau Field Thursday night as the Detroit Lions built a 24-point halftime lead en route to a 34-20 win over the Green Bay Packers.

 

Things looked promising at the start when Rudy Ford intercepted a Jared Goff pass that set up an Anders Carlson field goal. Things only went south from there as the Lions scored 27 unanswered points on offense and their defense held the Packers to less than 50 yards in the first half.

 

The Packers offense started to turn things around when Jordan Love threw for one touchdown and ran to another to make it 27-17 early in the fourth quarter. The Lions would eat up the next nine minutes thanks in part to a Quay Walker penalty on special teams to score one last back-breaking touchdown with only a Carlson field goal in the final three minutes to ease the pain.

 

David Montgomery had his way against the Packers, rushing for 121 yards on 32 carries and three touchdowns. The Lions outgained the Packers 211 yards-27 yards on the ground. Jordan Love had his worst game of the season, throwing two interceptions.

 

The Packers won't play again until they travel to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders on Monday Night Football October 9th.
