Jaire, Myers, both inactive: The Packers will face the Lions on Sunday without top cornerback Jaire Alexander and starting center Josh Myers, both of whom are inactive due to injuries. Rookie safety Evan Williams is also inactive with a hamstring injury. The Lions do not have starting linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez. Noteworthy: Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs are both active, as expected.

Opening drive leads to FG: The Packers marched 63 yards on 14 plays to get on the field first. The drive took nearly eight minutes of the first quarter and ended with a short field goal by Brandon McManus. Josh Jacobs ran six times for 35 yards and Tucker Kraft converted a fourth down with a sneak. Jordan Love and Chris Brooks narrowly missed converting on a third down in the red zone. Packers 3, Lions 0.

The fourth-down gamble pays off: The Lions took the lead after a converted 4th and goal. Jared Goff beat Amon Ra-St. Brown against Keisean Nixon's coverage for a 3-yard touchdown. David Montgomery rushed for 39 yards and Goff completed all five of his passes. The rain didn't slow the Lions down at all at the start.

Branch ejected: Lions defensive back Brian Branch was ejected after illegally hitting Bo Melton on a third down play in the second quarter. The Packers were unable to make up the penalty after Tucker Kraft dropped a pass in the third and Brandon McManus missed a 46-yard field goal.

Lions settle for field goal: Another long Lions drive ended with a field goal. The Packers got a much-needed stop in the red zone while picking off Jared Goff on third down. The Lions only trailed by a third before reaching the red zone. Lions 10, Packers 3.

Disaster: Kerby Joseph intercepted an attempted dump-off pass from Jordan Love and returned the pick 27 yards for a touchdown. Disaster. The Packers' weaknesses became apparent in the first half. Lions 17, Packers 3.

Game over? The Lions took over the second half kickoff and ran the ball down the Packers' throats. A penalty on Keisean Nixon extended the drive and Jahmyr Gibbs did the rest. It's 24-3 Lions.
