Photos: Green Bay Packers overtake Detroit Lions for last-second win at Lambeau Field

State Journal columnist Tom Oates grades the Green Bay Packers' performance in their 23-22 win over the Detroit Lions on Monday night at Lambeau Field.

The Packers third-year running back, who was the hero of last week’s victory over the Cowboys with four touchdown runs, made two crucial mistakes during the first half of Monday night’s 23-22 victory over the Lions.

Despite a myriad of turnovers, penalties, explosive plays allowed by the defense and missed opportunities from the offense, the Packers got a 23-yard walk-off — or, more accurately, sprint-off — game-winning field goal from veteran kicker Mason Crosby to beat the Detroit Lions, 23-22, Monday night at Lambeau Field.

The Packers moved to 5-1 on the season and 3-0 in the division, but none of that looked even remotely possible until Mason Crosby's 29-yard field goal on the game's final play gave the Packers a 23-22 victory over the Lions.

Another frustrating weekend of flag-filled football culminated with the Packers' 23-22 last-second win over the Lions on Monday night thanks to two hands-to-the-face calls on Detroit defensive end Trey Flowers.
