Lions close out the season with a thrilling win over the Packers

Anyone expecting the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions to not put forth much effort in a game that meant nothing in the standings for either team, they thought wrong. Week 18 turned into a fun, thrilling, back-and-forth contest that had Ford Field rocking.

The Lions prevailed in a spirited 37-30 contest that saw the Packers play their starters for the first half. Dan Campbell’s Lions poured everything into the kitchen sink and threw it at the NFC North Champs.

Detroit scored on one trick play with wide receiver Tom Kennedy throwing a 75-yard touchdown pass to fellow wideout Kalif Raymond.
