Lions fall short in comeback to Packers, lose 34-27

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw four touchdowns in the first half and Detroit was unable to come back, despite 3 touchdowns and nearly 400 yards from Matthew Stafford. The Lions didn’t show up until late in the first half but were already down 31-3 when they scored their first touchdown. Marvin Jones had two impressive touchdowns and over 200 yards receiving – his career best – in the losing effort. The Lions couldn’t get pressure on Rodgers, nor could they cover on the back end. With the win, the Packers go to 2-1 on the year, while Detroit falls to 1-2.
