The Packers are out, and Seahawks into the playoffs, after the Lions prevailed Sunday night.
The Lions and Packers traded field goal attempts in sub-freezing temperatures for the first 30 minutes, with Green Bay taking a 9-6 lead into halftime.
Mason Crosby, who narrowly made 48- and 49-yard field goals in the first half, missed his kick short off the crossbar, giving the Lions the ball at their own 43-yard line. Aaron Rodgers, the Packers’ aging four-time MVP quarterback, answered with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Allen Lazard to give Green Bay a short-lived 16-13 lead. But the Lions took the lead for good three possessions later with a 13-play, 75-yard touchdown drive.
Along with Williams, the Lions got big contributions Sunday from rookies Aidan Hutchinson and Kerby Joseph. Hutchinson had two sacks to finish with 9.5 for the season, second-most by a rookie in Lions history, behind Ndamukong Suh, and Joseph, who got beat on Rodgers’ touchdown to Lazard, picked off a Rodgers heave to Christian Watson with 3:27 to play.
