Recap · 1 min read

The Detroit Lions beat the Green Bay Packers 20–17 on Bates’ 22-yard field goal as time expired, completing a winning drive after Wonnum blocked a Green Bay field-goal attempt.

The Packers tied the game on Smack’s 43-yard field goal in the fourth quarter. Green Bay then stopped Gibbs on fourth down at the Detroit 22, but Wonnum blocked Smack’s 35-yard attempt. Gibbs later ran 8 yards on third-and-6 to set up Bates’ winner.

Goff threw a 16-yard touchdown to Williams in the first quarter, and Love answered with a 14-yard scoring pass to Kraft. After Bates put Detroit ahead, Green Bay took a 14–10 lead on Love’s 25-yard touchdown pass to Jacobs following a Goff fumble.
