Brown, who finished with 49 yards on six catches, made an incredible tumbling catch in the fourth quarter that he secured between his legs. Brown and Chark delivered in the clutch, as both made impactful plays when Detroit needed them most. Brown (14) celebrate as Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander (23) watches after Chark caught a pass for a first down late in the second half of an NFL football game Sunday, Jan. Detroit Lions wide receiver DJ Chark (4) and wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Justin Jackson added just one carry for two yards. Swift also was on the receiving end of a lateral, on a well-executed hook-and-ladder play.
He converted two first downs on Detroit’s go-ahead scoring drive, including an 11-yard run on a first down to move the team further into the red zone. The young back delivered 25 yards rushing, and added 61 yards receiving on seven catches. Williams was the team’s leading rusher with 72 yards, but D’Andre Swift contributed both on the ground and through the air.
The sixth-year back scored his 16th rushing score of the year in the third quarter, and then the record-breaker to give his team the lead with under 6:00 to play. Jamaal Williams etched his name into the record books, breaking Barry Sanders’ franchise record for rushing touchdowns in a season. On the team’s go-ahead drive, he completed all five of his passes, including a fourth-down conversion throw to DJ Chark. However, the signal-caller remained poised and confident in the clutch.
