All good things come to an end and sadly the streak of Lions futility in Wisconsin is coming to an end Sunday. Nice of the NFL to give the Packers fans 3+ more hours of the streak.

Packers 17
Lions 21

    Not sure why anyone here needs to worry about all this, "the expert" has The Packers 1 and done in the playoffs, and he is never wrong.
    🙄

    Well, anyway, I'm gonna give it a go.

    Packers DOMINATE!!!!!

    The side story to this game will be played out on the West Coast, as The rams pull off the stunning upset, giving Green Bay home field advantage through the play-offs.

    Again though it's not gonna matter, Packer fate has already heen decided!!!

    Although I beleive the Packers will win this one, let's play the "devils advocate" here for a moment.

    What the Lions could/can do to beat the Packers

    On Defense:
    Biggest key will be stopping the Packers run game.
    Lions are one of the few teams that can stop the run while playing two safeties deep in coverage.
    Stopping the run with minimal players, and freeing up more for trying to stop the Packers passing game, which is where the Packers rule. That and limit Jordy Nelson, contain him.
    Limit the blitzes on Rodgers and rush with four.

    On Offense:
    Reggie Bush.
    The Packers will have to deal with his speed and pass catching skills as well.
    Packers' linebackers and safeties have vulnerabilities on defense because of their hesitation.
    The biggest weapon against hesitation is speed, and Reggie still has that.
    That and if Matthew Stafford decides to play up to his capabilties (which sometimes fails him), he can do some damage.

    And as to the Lions as a whole, and this is huge for them, it has been a very long time since they have anything to play for.
    They do now and this is the chance for some huge redemption for them.
    Do not discount that motivation and impact.

    Latest Lions injury post:
    RB Joique Bell (Achilles) - Limited in practice
    WR Calvin Johnson (ankle) - Did not practice
    DT Nick Fairley (knee) - Did not practice
    CB Mohammed Seisay (hamstring) - Fully practiced
    I am chosen by many but taken by no one.
    Fan Shout
    Zero2Cool (55m) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach
    beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.
    dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc
    dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before
    dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast
    dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season
    beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!
    Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.
    Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest
    beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
    beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.
    Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.
    Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo
    Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision
    beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it
    Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue
    beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉
    beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan
    beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan
    Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while
    Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.
    Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."
    Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game
    Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky
    Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?
    beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*
    beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?
    Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes
    go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast
    beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4
    Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one
    Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one
    Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha
    go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota
    beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th
    beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?
    beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead
    beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18
    Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
    beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed
    beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!
    beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over
    packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor
