Runs 2:14 | Dec. 22, 1990 - The Lions survived the frigid temperature and bounced the Packers from playoff contention with a come-from-behind 24-17 victory at Lambeau Field. Both teams tacked on seven first-quarter points (Detroit's came via a 26-yard TD sprint by QB Rodney Peete as the wind chill factor plunged to -35 degrees). Green Bay's Darrell Thompson took the second half kickoff and sprinted 76 yards for a TD and Chris Jacke added a 22-yard FG. However, Detroit rallied to win on 14 fourth-quarter points. Ray Crockett picked up an Ed West fumble and raced 22 yards for a TD and Barry Sanders scored the game-winner on a six-yard TD with 3:55 remaining.
