Thursday night’s matchup between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions was billed as a clash of the titans. The first time these two teams played, it was anything but that. The Lions led by as many as 21 points en route to a 24-14 victory at Lambeau Field.

This time around the Packers fell behind by two scores again, losing their composure pregame.

They had a chance to make a big play to turn the tide, but Jahmyr Gibbs’ one yard touchdown reception gave the Lions a 17-7 lead going into the half.

The Packers started the second half with a bang, scoring two touchdowns in three minutes and 45 seconds, leading to a back-and-forth second half.

Jordan Love had a big second half. Josh Jacobs asserted himself again. Ultimately, Green Bay could not stop the Lions on fourth down, as they converted four out of five fourth downs on the night, including two that went for touchdowns, and one that iced the game. Here is our weekly six-pack.

Game Ball: Josh Jacobs Three more touchdowns for Jacobs on the night. He’s been a redzone weapon for this team, and has scored eight times since the bye week, including two hat tricks. He finished the night with 66 yards on 18 carries to go with his three touchdowns. The signing of Jacobs was controversial at the time due to who he was replacing. Aaron Jones is awesome. Great player, better person. There’s no question that Jacobs has been better for Green Bay’s offense. Lame Ball: Zach Tom It’s a tough life as an offensive lineman. Zach Tom was largely quiet for most of the night.

It only takes one or two plays to draw attention to yourself in a bad way. Tom did that on the Packers’ first play from scrimmage. He allowed a sack to Za’Darius Smith, which all but killed the Packers’ first drive of the night and helped them fall into an early hole. Tom gave up two more pressures on the night by our count, and was penalized for a false start in the fourth quarter that put the Packers behind the sticks. Tom is one of the team’s best players. He did not play like it in a big game.

Play of the Game: Love Finds Watson for 59 The Packers’ passing offense was sputtering through the first half. They finished with 31 yards, the lowest of Jordan Love’s career. His three completions were the least since 2013 when Scott Tolzien, Seneca Wallace, and Matt Flynn were under center. So what did Love do? He dialed up one of his favorite targets for a deep ball. Christian Watson showed off some of the easy speed, running by Carlton Davis for 59 yards, putting the Packers in scoring range. Three plays later, Love found Tucker Kraft, throwing him a fastball in front of Davis again to make the score 17-14.

With 43 seconds left, he faced a fourth and 1, from well within field goal range. Instead of giving Jordan Love a chance to tie the game with a drive of his own, Campbell risked it all, giving the ball to David Montgomery. Goff got stepped on during the play, but was able to get the ball into Montgomery’s hands. He got the first down, and Bates did the rest. Had they not gotten the first down, the Packers would have had a chance to win the game. Instead, fortunate favored the bold. Pre-Game Dust Up Emotions were high. This game was a big one for both the Packers and Lions.

As can happen in these kinds of games, the emotions got the best of the Packers. Matt LaFleur was seen before the game hurling expletives at a fan who had something to say to him before the game. It was a low moment for the Packers’ Head Coach, and his team followed suit with an undisciplined first half that included one personal foul penalty on Quay Walker.
