2024 Green Bay Packers vs Detroit Lions Official Game Thread

Good to see no one is overreacting to 1 bad game.

I think the team has shown they are not outclassed by Detroit. Their QB made plays. Jordan Love prevented them from having a chance to win.

That's always been the fear with Love going back to his college scouting report. He was lights out the last half of the 2023 season and then ends the SF game by throwing one of the worst passes you'll ever see on 1st down near midfield when a FG gets the game to OT.

He's not a 21 year old rookie that is just learning the NFL. He's in his 5th year and has had 5 years of coaching and training camps. At some point, when someone keeps showing you what they are (a very good QB who still makes bone-headed plays that lose you big games), they are what they are.

If MLF just kicks the FG the last drive, this drive would be to get within 1 score.

There was an 8 game stretch where Love was great.   We’ve seen more bad then those 8 games now.   I can even think of couple TD passes this year that had just as good a chance of being picks   Doubs to the right pilon.  Kraft amazing catch went through the defenders hands  

INTs were the concern when drafted.  He is a 5th year player. That’s a fucking veteran in this league.   He ain’t changing.

All we need is a TD and a 12-point conversion.

I don't know how close that was, but Watson might be the worst receiver I've ever seen in playing the ball in the  air considering how good an athlete he is otherwise.

Kick the FG and get within 2 scores.

his throws are god awful

De toilet giving us gifts

NFL home office made a call to keep people watching a little longer.

They're stuck with him now with that contract. Has the money made him arrogant? Seems so. But, he can recover, and we'll see how he does after the bye week.

We look good in garbage time

I need a Reed TD for my fantasy team.

Love that 85 tucked it instead of trying to get the 1st there. Reliable and responsible.

He made the same type of mistakes before the contract.

It’s crazy to watch an NFL WR consistently mistiming jump balls.   He’s got value, but he should never be thrown a jump ball.

There's the TD, now the 12-point conversion, and we're tied up.

Why go for 2?

I have to sweat the under now.   Lol.

It's like the neurons in the part of his nervous system that controls timing jumps doesn't fire correctly.

Plenty of time left - why not just regular kickoff??

What the fuck was that onside kick attempt? Line drive out of bounds? WTF

Great special teams planning there. How do you kick an onside kick that poorly?

By our kick-ass ST coach that is making the big bucks

Always a sweat. I didn't bet it, but I also would've taken the under

Onside kick = stoopid

This 3rd down conversion will mercifully end this game before someone gets hurt.

Love watching 7 get dump trucked

MLF blowing a timeout to call a 4th down run off tackle to come up short has also ended this earlier too.

Yeah the run defense isn’t good

This game was over when we had to settle for 3 on the opening drive. Instead of making a statement, the Lions got a boost.

Nice effort Torrance, I mean, Quay

Quay looking for his jock

Can they pplllllleeeeeeeaaaaaassssseeeee get a TD.???  🙏🏻  🙏🏻  🙏🏻  🙏🏻  🙏🏻

Quay Walker gets faked out of his jock one last time.

3 kneel downs coming. At least no one got hurt in garbage time

Do they try the rub your nose in it nonsense now?

Quay Walker W T F

They still made a statement that they were going to be competitive.

The entire game changed on the pick six. Full stop.
