Fans go bonkers after Packers Hail Mary win

There’s no such thing as an easy Hail Mary.

The Lions appeared to have pulled off the upset of the Packers on Thursday night when Green Bay’s last-ditch lateral play ended up in the hands of Aaron Rodgers, who was swung down to the ground by Lions defensive end Devin Taylor. Lacy finished the day with just one yard from scrimmage before reportedly suffering an ankle injury.

In fact, the play was designed from the start, right from how Rodgers threw it. “When you throw it with that arch you have a chance, because it gives guys a chance to fight for position”, said Packers coach Mike McCarthy said.

“It’s a close play, but even looking at the replay, the hand is up near the mask, the finger looks like it gets caught in the mask, and the head gets turned”, Dean Blandino, the NFL’s vice president of officiating, said on the NFL Network after the game.

Detroit Lions fans have it rough. So why wasn’t he on the field as a defender to pursue the jump ball?

With plenty of power in his right arm, Aaron Rodgers focused on trajectory as he threw.

A lot went wrong for the Lions. There were two Detroit defensive players camped out near the sideline 40 yards from the end zone.

Green Bay Packers tight end Richard Rodgers (82) reaches to catch the game winning pass on the last play of an NFL football game against the Detroit Lions, Thursday, Dec. 3, 2015, in Detroit. The limited pass rush allowed that. “We’ve got one more play”.

Speaking in a media conference, Aaron Rodgers said: “That’s a hell of a game, big one for us, get to eight wins”. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak for Detroit, which upset Green Bay at Lambeau Field last month.

In the fourth, Prater bagged a 42-yard field goal, and Aaron Rodgers ran one in from 17 yards out to make it 23-21. With the ball sailing overhead, they couldn’t defend anything. However, the latest face off against the Detroit Lions made believers out of the Aaron Rodgers squad.

“The game’s not over until zero, zero, zero on that clock”, Packers receiver Davante Adams said.

“It was a facemask”, Rodgers said after the game.

While you can argue the importance of the plays in question, you can’t argue that the family has a knack for drama, and that their Thanksgiving touch football game will be a classic for generations, as father and son recount their places in football lore.

Denver linebacker Von Miller was docked $8,681 by the league for his hit on New England quarterback Tom Brady last Sunday. After all, he escaped the pocket, heaved the ball almost 70 yards through the air to tight end Richard Rodgers.
