GREEN BAY, Wisconsin, Nov. 3, 2024 ~ The Detroit Lions braved the elements and a fierce Green Bay Packers team Sunday to secure a crucial 24-6 victory at Lambeau Field. The game, played under relentless rain and swirling winds, was a testament to the Lions’ resilience and adaptability. Quarterback Jared Goff, who completed 21 of 29 passes for 243 yards and two touchdowns, showcased his ability to perform under pressure, even in less-than-ideal conditions.
From the outset, it was clear that this game would be a test of endurance and strategy. The Packers struck first with a field goal, but the Lions quickly responded with a touchdown pass from Goff to Amon-Ra St. Brown, who finished with 8 receptions for 106 yards. The Lions’ defense also played a pivotal role, stifling the Packers’ offense and forcing key turnovers that shifted the momentum in Detroit’s favor.
