#LIONS AND SEAHAWKS SCORE PLUS#
Plus Sunday night's win caps a strong case for Jared Goff to remain as Detroit's starting quarterback entering next season. Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson, the second overall draft pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, accounted for both Detroit sacks to run his season total to 9.5, the most among all rookies this season.Įven though the Lions didn't make the playoffs this season, a 9-8 record, it was Detroit's first winning season since 2017. Rodgers also appeared to be flustered by the Lions' pass rush all night, throwing balls into the dirt or off target when flushed in the pocket. Green Bay was driving in the second quarter, but a fumble from running back Aaron Jones stalled that drive.
The Packers had their chances, but they couldn't capitalize, settling for four field goals and making three. The Lions were able to bleed the final 3:27 off the clock following a fourth-and-1 conversion on a play-action pass from quarterback Jared Goff to receiver DJ Chark. Aaron Rodgers couldn't quite find a rhythm, throwing for 205 yards, one touchdown, and an interception on the Packers' final offensive possession. Ten of the 17 came from a yard out, including both tonight. The Lions are the first NFC North team since the 2018 Lions to sweep the Green Bay Packers.įormer Packer Jamaal Williams scored the Lions' only touchdowns, both 1-yard scores, to hit 17 rushing touchdowns on the season, breaking Hall of Famer Barry Sanders' single-season record of 16 set in 1991.
Instead, the Seattle Seahawks take the final NFC wild card spot, and they will play the second-seeded San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Wild Card round. However, the Detroit Lions prevented the Packers from completing the turnaround from 4-8 to 9-8 and into the playoffs with a 20-16 road win.
