NFL Twitter absolutely destroyed Packers for blowing it against Giants in London
By Rylie Smith
The Green Bay Packers were close to a victory over the New York Giants in the London game, but they weren’t quite close enough.
The Green Bay Packers nearly pulled a victory over the New York Giants in the London game, but they weren’t quite close enough. Early in the fourth quarter, the game was tied 20-20 until the Giants came up 27-20. Green Bay made a huge attempt to come up in the last six minutes of the game, but they fell short with a final score of 27-22.
Green Bay also held a 17-3 lead in the first half, so they were seemingly on the right path to success. Then, the second half crushed their lead and cost them the win.
This game was certainly frustrating for Packers fans in one of the most special regular-season games.
As fans typically do in any situation, exciting or upsetting, they took to Twitter their reactions with some priceless expressions.
