Final Score
Green Bay Packers 0-0-14-13 — 27
Detroit Lions 17-0-0-6 — 23
Box Score
The Green Bay Packers shocked the country on one of the most memorable plays of the 2015 season. The Lions led the entire game except on the final score.
Aaron Rodgers was sacked as time expired in what appeared to be the last play of the game. A flag was thrown and the Lions were called for a facemask on the sack. This left the Packers with one un-timed down to attempt to do the unthinkable. With no time on the clock, Rodgers rolled out and threw the ball high in the air.
Tight end Richard Rodgers boxed out Lions defenders and came up with the catch to win the game. Rodgers threw the ball an estimated 70 yards.
Here are the highlight of the game including the amazing Hail Mary pass:
The Lions Jumped Out to a Big Lead
Matthew Stafford connected with Eric Ebron in the endzone for a touchdown. The score made it 10-0 in favor of the Lions. Ameer Abdullah had a couple nice runs to help the Detroit offense move down the field.
