Quick Take: Packers run up the score in Detroit, win 27-7
A-Rod rolls out to the right and on the run throws a nice TD to TE Donald Lee
It was over when...
Daunte Culpepper got intercepted the third time in a row at the beginning of the fourth quarter, this time by Nick Collins after Al Harris picked off the Lions QB in the two previous Detroit offensive drives.
Game ball
goes to the Packers Defensive Ends Aaron Kampman and Cullen Jenkins who recorded 8 sacks (5+3) and pressured the QB throughout the game, effectively disrupting the Lions offense.
Key stat
The Lions only compiled 183 total offense yards in the game, of which 79 came on a TD pass late in the game. They got dominated and embarrased in front of the home crowd in the first two quarters and had to sneak into the locker room at half time with only 21 offensive yards.
Noteworthy
Frustrated about his inaccurate throws, Aaron Rodgers decided to run up the score in Detroit, punishing the home team with 17 late points in the 4th quarter, but unlike Woody Hayes the Packers didn't go for two after their last TD, 0:36sec before the end of the game. It didn't help the Pack's passing attack that both Donald Driver and Greg Jennings had to leave the game with injuries (will be back next week).
