Packers run the table to win NFC North

Week 17

Ford Field
Detroit, Michigan

Packers 31 - Lions 24

Aaron Rodgers said it and the Packers did it.


The Green Bay Packers ran the table and finished the season as the NFC North division champions.  Once 4-6, the Packers won their last six games to punch a ticket to the postseason.  Rodgers was excellent throwing for 300 yards and four touchdowns.  Geronimo Allison was the leading receiver with 91 yards and a touchdown.  Davante Adams also had a nice game hauling in a pair of touchdowns.

It should be noted that due several successful playoff scenarios during the early NFL games, the Packers clinched a playoff spot prior to the start of the Lions game.  However, the Packers wanted more.  The division crown.


The Packers will face the New York Giants at Lambeau Field during next week's Wild Card round.
