It’s easy to dismiss a win over the Lions given their general perpetual state of disarray and mismanagement, but the Packers showed they can capitalize on weaknesses and take advantages of opportunities when presented.
While QB Aaron Rodgers had a respectable performance with 240 yards and two touchdowns with 18 of 30 attempts completed, the real star was RB Aaron Jones who managed 168 yards and two touchdowns.
Where last week against the Vikings was mostly a pass-heavy dominance on the part of the Packers, the Lions game showed how well-rounded and balanced the current offense is by dominating the Lions with the run.
