Green Bay Packers Blow Out Detroit Lions in Thanksgiving Turkey Bowl
No absence of storylines from the 2011 “Thanksgiving Turkey Bowl” between the Green Bay Packers an the Detroit Lions. You had:
-the Lions failing to live up to expectations/Matt Stafford throwing three picks
-Green Bay winning in dominant fashion 27-8, despite playing UGLY football for a half
-The Detroit fans getting a petition passed to prevent the crappy, overrated pop act Nickelback from playing at halftime
-Would this match-up of two potentially playoff bound NFC North teams live up to night back featuring two first place teams (San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens)
However, the real story here was Ndamukong Suh getting kicked out of the game early in the second half.
From Fox Sports:
The second-year star was seen grappling with Packers offensive lineman Evan Dietrich-Smith before standing up and stomping on his arm. The referees immediately flagged him for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and threw him out.
