Rodgers’ Hail Mary lifts Packers over Lions
“Nowadays, it’s more probable that they catch it than it gets batted down”.

Rodgers threw incomplete on the first two plays of the series, and the Packers were left with one final lateral play on third-and-10 with 6 seconds on the clock. The Detroit penalty extended the game and the Rodgers duo did the rest.
Before Thursday’s night’s game, the Packers were reeling, losers of four of their previous five games.
The Packers got the untimed down after Detroit defensive end Devin Taylor was called for grabbing Aaron Rodgers’ facemask on a tackle on what would’ve been the last play.
And at the end of that throw was tight end Richard Rodgers, who caught it for a 61-yard, game-winning TD. He said the Packers practice their Hail Mary play every Saturday and was impressed with his quarterback’s high-arcing throw to the end zone. He caught the ball. At the pass’s summit, the Packers had won the game. By then, all he was thinking was, “Catch it. You got to catch it. When he caught it, I just blanked out”. Sometimes we didnt execute which wouldve been more, better runs.
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers #12 of the Green Bay Packers rolls out to pass during the second quarter against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field on December 3, 2015 in Detroit, Michigan. Whatever the ref saw, he called facemask.
“I don’t know what happened”.
They had not. A flag was on the field – a facemask penalty on Taylor. The ref called what he called, there was nothing I could do about it..

Im not saying it was, Im not saying it wasnt.
“That’s where you’ll have to tune in February 7 to find out”, National Football League vice president of programming and media Ron Semiao said Thursday.
Coldplay’s halftime set will be made up of hits, Semiao said, including hot tracks from the new album, “A Head Full of Dreams”. Shame to us on that one..
The Lions dominated the first quarter of the match after Matt Prater kicked them ahead with a 51-yard field goal. And all Lions and Packers fans could do was hold their breath.
Ezekiel Ansah also continued to rack up the sacks, adding another one to his NFC-leading total.
Green Bay notched their first points of the game when they reached the redzone, but were fortunate as James Starks fumbled the ball, only for Randall Cobb to gather in the endzone.
Prater’s 34-yard field goal with 8:54 left in the third quarter gave Detroit a 20-0 lead.
The 27-year-old quarterback went 23-for-35 through the ari with 220 yards passing and two touchdowns. Now the Lions lead 23-21 with 3:04 left.
With a 23-21 lead and just 29 seconds remaining on the clock, the Lions were forced to punt the ball to the Packers, who had zero timeouts remaining. Earlier this season she went after ESPN.com Packers beat reporter Rob Demovsky’s list of five reasons for Rodgers’ slide into mediocrity. It gave Rodgers one last chance to win the game.
“Didn’t think it was, but that doesn’t matter”, Caldwell said. But Rodgers showed his vast arm strength and found his target for the touchdown. “Tough one to lose”.
“Decent, man”, Abdullah said of his performance after the game.
