The Detroit Lions thoroughly dominated the Green Bay Packers during the first half to earn a big NFC North victory at Lambeau Field on Thursday night.
Updated September 28, 2023 10:33 PMGREEN BAY, Wis. – From 1992 through 2014, the Detroit Lions came to Wisconsin 24 times. Every time, they lost.
This isn’t 1994, when the Packers demolished Barry Sanders in a playoff game. Or 2008, when Rodgers put the final nail in the Lions’ 0-16 coffin. Or 2011, when Matt Flynn had a game for the ages.In a clash of 2-1 teams battling for early NFC North superiority, the Lions showed they are the division’s definitive power, a team ready to make noise in the playoffs. The Packers showed they are the young pretenders, a talented team that’s nowhere near ready for primetime.
Love, who was 6-of-13 passing for 50 yards with one interception during a dreadful first half, finished 23-of-36 for 246 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. The Packers didn’t reach 200 yards of total offense until about 4 minutes remaining in the game.
