Lions and seahawks score full#

Reality started to set in that the Packers' season, full of ups and downs, was about to end. Brown, when he cradled it with his legs, got the Lions a big first down. The Lions had the ball in Packers territory with 3:27 left. On a third-and-10 he threw wildly downfield and Joseph drifted over for an easy interception. The Lions led 20-16 with less than six minutes to go. Williams scored another 1-yard touchdown, which was set up in part by a 15-yard penalty and ejection for Packers linebacker Quay Walker for shoving a member of the Lions' athletic training staff. Detroit picked up a crucial fourth-and-2 when head coach Dan Campbell decided to pass on a potential game-tying field goal. An interception by Kerby Joseph was taken off the board due to a hands to the face penalty by defensive lineman John Cominsky. Then he hit Allen Lazard for a touchdown pass and the Packers were back in front. He hit a pretty deep ball to Christian Watson for 45 yards. The Lions got a nice run from Jamaal Williams to start the ensuing drive, Goff hit Kalif Raymond for a 43-yard pass and Williams scored a 1-yard touchdown to give Detroit a 13-9 lead. Mason Crosby missed a 53-yard field goal, hitting the crossbar. The Lions finally broke through in the third quarter. The Packers needed 30 good minutes in the second half to make the playoffs, but the Lions weren't going to make it easy for their division rival. The cold weather at Lambeau Field wasn't helping Jared Goff, who was born and raised in California, or the Lions' offense as a whole. Detroit just couldn't get any offense going, other than the long play to Williams that was called back. If there was any question about the Lions playing hard even though they had been eliminated, that was wiped away in the first half. It set up a field goal at the end of the half, which was aided by a 15-yard personal foul on Packers cornerback Rasul Douglas, who hit a Lion in a scrum after batting the ball away from Detroit's long snapper following a timeout. A forced fumble of Aaron Jones in Detroit territory was a huge play. The Lions' defense kept Detroit in the game. When they ran a pretty flea flicker that Jameson Williams scored a long touchdown on, it was called back due to a holding call. The Lions struggled to get anything going.

Jamaal Williams of the Detroit Lions made some key plays in an upset win over the Packers. Instead, it was another January letdown for Rodgers and the Packers. It looked like another late-season surge for an unlikely playoff berth, led by Rodgers. They had a tiny chance to make the playoffs weeks ago, but got on a winning streak and everything started breaking their way. The Packers (8-9) were writing a great story before Sunday night. Green Bay, which had played so well during a four-game winning streak, saw a repeat of some of the old mistakes that held it back when it was 4-8 on the season. Rodgers threw an interception right after that and never got the ball back. The Lions, whose playoff hopes ended when the Seahawks beat the Los Angeles Rams in overtime, took a lead with less than six minutes left in the game. 2 seed San Francisco 49ers on Saturday over wild-card weekend.
