GREEN BAY, Wis. – There wasn't the jubilation of 2015, when the Detroit Lions sprinted onto the field with fingers raised and running up and down the sideline as the clock ticked down.
None of that was needed this time. There were no streaks to break. There was no surprise or baited breath or end-of-game excitement. No, the Lions' 30-17 win over Green Bay on Monday night was methodical. It was thorough.
And it left Lambeau Field with pockets of empty seats by the two-minute warning, fans ready to head home after watching Detroit win in Green Bay for the second time in three years.
