With the win, the Packers, at 5-1, are alone in first place in the NFC North Division. The Lions, who had won four straight against the Packers before Monday night, fell to 2-2-1 and finished last in the North.

Why did the packers
Stout was the difference between red-zone defense, a more balanced offensive attack and the clutch plays of Aaron Rodgers. While Rodgers threw for nearly 200 yards in the second half (he finished with 283 yards on 24 of 39), Jamal Williams, who received huge minutes after stumbling Aaron Jones, and the first half. Dropped a touchdown pass, reaching 104 yards. Which included a 45-yard run that reduced Green Bay's deficit to 13-10.

Despite playing without DeWayne Adams and losing Geronimo Allison during the game with a possible pact, Rodgers gave passes to nine different players, including his 35-yard gem with Allen-Lord, the Packers. Got to within double digits late in the game. Three completions for Lazard on the final drive helped set up Mason Crosby's game-winning kick.

After allowing quarterback Matt Stafford to throw for more than 200 yards in the first half, the Green Bay defense allowed under 50 passing yards during the final 30 minutes of the game. Kenny Gollade, who had 105 yards in halftime, caught just one pass during the second half. The Green Bay defense, led by Zadarius Smith and Preston Smith, ran for just 56 yards. The Packers defense also put constant pressure on Stafford, especially at number three.

Why Lions LOST?
The Lions were just 1-3 in the red zone, as Detroit failed to fully capitalize on their initial scoring opportunities. The first game of the game yielded just three scores for 66 yards from Stafford to Golladay. When the Lions were able to complete 58 yards from Stafford to Marvin Hall, Kerrin Johnson was scoring 1-yard on his next possession, hoisting him over Aaron Bay for a second field goal after Aaron Jones' return Had to compromise. Subsequent occupation.

The Lions 'biggest shocking opportunity came after a five-minute third line at the Packers' 25 yards line to recover Darius Shepherd's stranded creed. Instead of a touchdown, Detroit had to settle for another field goal, taking a 16–13 lead. The Lions still settled for more than 12 minutes after Justin Coleman returned Rogers' own Red Zone pick to the Green Bay area.

Two big penalty trier flowers against the Lions also proved crucial to the result. Flowers 'first illegal hands for a face sentence against Green Bay lineman David Bakhtiari gave the Packers a first chance, which eventually went to Lazard for Rodgers' touchdown pass. Flowers' second penalty, with the Lions exiting the timeout and one last possession try, gave the Packers a fresh set of down-sets, while they had to clock the game before sending Crosby out for a game-clock. Was left

Detroit's lack of offensive balance, as noted above, also contributed to the lack of offensive success during the second half of Monday's game.

Turn
While the Packers were gaining momentum, Flowers' first fourth quarter penalty changed the complexity of the game. After Rodgers was sacked by Kevin Strong for an 11-yard loss on third-and-10 from the Lions' 45-yard line, Green Bay gave the penalty first down with 9 on 40 of the penalty. Rodgers hit Lazard for the latter two plays.

Game play
Rogers throwing Lazard was a thing of beauty. Although Monday night's game was anything but perfect, when Raw Green Bay won from behind the win, Rodgers made a clutch play. Rodgers recorded his 21st game-winning drive on Monday night and his sixth against the Lions.
