Packers
W 27-13 vs Lions · Sep 7, 2025
Misery Index · Euphoric
Packers fans watching Parsons run down Goff and quietly deciding the 27-13 opener was a statement.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
J.Love opened the season by carving up Detroit early — the 15-yard strike to T.Kraft, the 48-yard shot to R.Doubs, the 26-yarder to J.Reed — and E.Williams' pick of J.Goff in the second quarter turned a good start into a stranglehold. Detroit's late garbage-time score made the box look closer than the game ever felt. The only question left is whether this version of the offense actually travels.
What fans said
“Go Packers. Great effort from the team. Move on to **Thursday Night Football.**”

“watching the lions go all out 2 minute offence so they could score a single touchdown in garbage time to lose 27-13 instead of 27-6 was hilarious”
