At least if you’re going to turn the ball over lots of times, you should strive to set the one-game record for turnovers. Thanks boys for engineering another brilliant defeat.
Lions 40, Packers 10.
First Thanksgiving Day game victory for Detroit (Day-Twa) in something like ten years, and 7:5:0 season record, including two over the Bears, a split with GB, and one to go with the Vikings. No points scored in the second half by the Packers, who seemed to become the first half Lions. Aaron “70s Porn Star” Rogers was fuming on the sidelines, and I do feel for the guy, because I actually like him (must be those State Farm commercials).
For that matter, and notice I writing this behind the anonymity of the Internet, I’ve always admired the fact that the Packers are the only community-owned team in the NFL. They had a bad stretch in the 1970s, but basically, players who go to Green Bay go because they want to play quality football. I don’t think that they’ve got that much of a problem with their QB switch, because they are a well-recruited and well-coached team.
This isn’t going to be their year, however.
GO LIONS!
