Going into this Sunday, the Detroit Lions season record was 1 – 7. This weeks game was against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, home advantage to the Packers. By any reasonable assessment, the Packers should have soundly defeated the Lions.
But they didn’t. The Lions pulled out an 18 – 16 win over the Packers. Something no one saw coming and something that under normal circumstances shouldn’t have happened.
And that’s just the point.
On any given day, anything can happen.
Just when you think it won’t. Just when you think it can’t. What you need to have happen, does.
I bet the Lions were glad they suited up and went out on the field Sunday.
