Pick-Six gives the Lions a double-digit halftime lead against the Packers; Live updates

3rd quarter

14:53 – Lions drive begins at their own 29

For the second time in the game, the Lions go and score on 4th down in the red zone. This time, Jahmir Gibbs managed 15 yards for the score after previously recording a 20-yard run. Detroit 17, Green Bay 3

2nd quarter

0:32 — Packers drive begins at their own 30

The Packers fail to score in the final 30 seconds of the first half and the Lions take a two-touchdown lead. Detroit 17, Green Bay 3

0:58 – The Packers drive begins at their own 30

Huge swing for the Lions: Jordan Love tries to get rid of the ball to avoid a sack, and Kerby Joseph grabs it and records a pick six. Detroit 17, Green Bay 3

5:23 – Lions drive begins at their own 36

Jared Goff's first incompletion after an 11-on-11 start comes on 3rd-and-goal as the Lions have to settle for a field goal but take a touchdown lead on the road with less than a minute to go before halftime. Detroit 10, Green Bay 3

9:19 – The Packers' drive begins at 6 p.m

The Lions' first penalty of the game is huge: Brian Branch is ejected for a helmet-to-helmet hit, causing Detroit to lose perhaps its best defender. This hit gives the Packers a 30-yard penalty, but they miss a field goal attempt. Lions 7, Packers 3

12:09 – Lions drive begins at their own 9

The Lions' second drive is shorter: four plays and then a punt, as Detroit gives up a third-down sack to Jared Goff and the Lions punt. Penei Sewell tangled with Kevin Zeitler's leg and gave up the rare sack. Lions 7, Packers 3

14:49 – Packers drive begins at their own 30

On the Packers' first play of the drive, Josh Jacobs managed a 37-yard run up the middle, but the Lions held on after that. Jordan Love only attempted one pass on the drive as it gets windier in Lambeau. Lions 7, Packers 3

1st quarter

7:06 – Lions drive starts from their own 30

Dan Campbell makes a bold call on 4th-and-goal that pays off with a 2-yard touchdown pass to Amon-Ra St. Brown on a nice route and throw from Jard Goff. David Montgomery led the Lions' primary offensive attack with 39 yards on eight carries. Lions 7, Packers 3

14:56 – The Packers' drive starts from their own 25

The Packers drove 63 yards on 14 plays for the first score, got a push for 41 rushing yards and converted a 4th-and-1 tight end sneak to get into field goal territory before a total Lions blitz forcing a third-down incompletion and field goal

It's a rainy day in Wisconsin, but neither that nor his groin injury seemed to have much of an impact on Jordan Love, who went 3-for-5 for 27 yards. Packers 3, Lions 0

Foreplay: As expected, Packers quarterback Jordan Love is active today and will likely try to overcome a groin injury for the Packers.

No surprises among the Lions' seven inactive players.

The Lions will look to extend their winning streak to the franchise's longest in nearly three decades at one of the most storied venues in professional football.

The Lions travel to Lambeau Field on Sunday for their afternoon opener against the Packers (4:25 ET, FOX). They do so with a five-game winning streak in hand; The Lions haven't won six straight games in a season since 1995.

To do that, however, they will have to stop the 6-2 Packers, who themselves have a four-game winning streak and are just a half-game behind the Lions for first place in the NFC North.
