Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions
Way down there to Watson
The Packers wasted no time moving the ball down the field. On the game’s first play from scrimmage, Jordan Love connected with Christian Watson on a deep ball for a 53-yard gain, moving the Packers into Lions territory.
In the blink of an eye
Just four plays after Watson’s reception put the Packers at the Lions’ 22-yard line, the Packers capped off their opening drive with Love throwing a 10-yard touchdown pass to Jayden Reed to go up, 7-0.
Answering back
Just like the Packers, the Lions also wasted no time moving the ball down the field on their first possession. Jared Goff connected with rookie tight end Sam LaPorta for a pair of big plays, first hitting him in stride for a 31-yard gain to move Detroit into the red zone. Two plays later, Goff found LaPorta over the middle for a 7-yard touchdown, making it a 7-6 game as the Lions missed the extra-point attempt.
Ordering Kraft on Thanksgiving
The Packers brushed aside the Lions’ response to their opening drive by scoring again. Love led the Packers on a 10-play, 75-yard drive that ended with him connecting with tight end Tucker Kraft for a 9-yard touchdown pass off a play-action to make it 14-6.
