When the Detroit Lions needed their defense to make a stand against the Green Bay Packers' offense and turn the game over to their offense with the score still tied to start the second half, the defense couldn't do it.
Instead, it folded on back to back possessions that ended in Packers' touchdowns.
When the Lions needed the offense to put a drive together to give the defense relief from being on the field for almost the first nine minutes of the second half, the offense failed.
It ran three plays, gained a net of four yards, and sent the defense back on the field to chase the Packers' offense on another scoring drive that lasted almost eight more minutes.
