Zero I am a bit puzzled by your Shout comment that GB didn't deserve the W.

If you look at the stats GB outplayed them on both sides of the ball.
More:
First downs
Better on 3rd down
Total yards
Passing
Running
Yards per play
Time of possession

Fewer:
Penalties
Sacks allowed

They did have more turnovers but the defense stood up and held them to FGs.
They did give up a few big plays but most of them were early in the game. The defense shut them down big time for most of the game. Detroit didn't have 300 total yards. They got only 1 TD. GB was without the top 2 WR for most of the game. It has a hell of a win.

Baktiari (spelling?) deserves a game ball for faking getting his head pushed back and drawing the penalties!

Plus the smart move by Willams to NOT score the TD!

It was a VERY smart move! That guaranteed the Lions wouldn’t get the ball back to try to win. Had Williams scored, they didn’t have any timeouts, but there was too much time on the clock.
Of course had Crosby missed the chip shot field goal, or had it blocked, it would have ended up looking like a bad thing that Williams took the dive.

But it all worked out!

The offense was not great but it was adequate. They were able to overcome the dropped passes. There were some questionable calls but there is justification by the league for those calls. GB only got 4 first downs off of penalties. They typically get at about 3 a week so it is not very different. When they got them and the ability to score after the penalties might be.
