Packers persevere, take over first place
It was windy. It was ugly. But it was up and it was good:
"The way the wind was swirling, I don’t think anything was real sure," coach Mike Sherman said. "The only sure thing is Ryan Longwell."
Longwell’s winner, with the wind from 23 yards out with 2 seconds left, was his third field goal of the second half. Hanson had connected twice in the first half but never got another chance largely because of the Lions' astonishingly inept passing attack.
Thus, the Packers (8-5) finally were able to assume full-fledged possession of first place in the NFC North from the Minnesota Vikings, a 27-23 loser to the Seattle Seahawks...
