Love’s 12-yard scoring pass to tight end Tucker Kraft was set up by his 59-yard completion to Watson on the first possession of the second half. Detroit’s lead was now 17–14 as a result.

The Packers had the ball at the Lions’ 16-yard line when Keisean Nixon intercepted a Goff pass a few seconds later. With 11:15 left in the quarter, Jacobs’ 6-yard run gave Green Bay the lead.

In response, Goff and the Lions went on a 13-play drive. Goff put Detroit ahead 24–21 when he found Patrick on fourth-and-goal from the 3.

Detroit gambled on fourth-and-1 from its own 31 after forcing a punt, but it backfired as Gibbs was thrown for a loss. The Packers took the lead again in the first minute of the fourth quarter when Jacobs scored from 4 yards out.

With a 10-play drive that culminated in Goff’s 1-yard pass to Patrick with 8:39 remaining, the Lions stormed back. Brandon McManus’ 32-yard field goal with 3:38 remaining gave the Packers a 31-point lead.

During its subsequent possession, Detroit ran out of time. Montgomery’s 7-yard run on fourth-and-1 (with Goff collapsing as he passed the ball off) and a 16-yard pass from Goff to Amon-Ra St. Brown in the final minute put Bates in position to attempt the game-winning kick.
