Packers...37 Lions...26

DETROIT -- Brett Favre fumbled on his first play of the game. It was about the only mistake he made.

Favre set a Green Bay record with 20 consecutive completions and finished with a season-high 381 yards and three touchdowns in the Packers’ 37-26 victory over the Detroit Lions on Thursday.

The three-time most valuable player fumbled after his first snap, tripping over a teammate, before rebounding impressively. His seventh 300-yard game of the season matched a team mark he set in 1995.

Greg Jennings caught two touchdown passes and Donald Driver had 10 receptions for 147 yards for Green Bay. Ryan Grant ran for 101 yards and a score.

Green Bay (10-1) matched its best 11-game record since 1929 and the NFC North leaders have a four-game lead with five games left in the regular season.

The Lions (6-5) have lost three in a row.
