The Lions were 3-for-3 on fourth down until trying another deep in their own territory late in the first half.

Four plays later, the Packers had the lead again.

Josh Jacobs scored his third touchdown of the night, with his 4-yard run giving the Packers a 28-24 lead.

The Packers’ four touchdown drives have covered 70, 70, 16 and 30.

Jacobs has 15 carries for 64 yards, and Jordan Love has completed 9 of 16 passes for 139 yards and a touchdown.
