It's going to be a very tough, physical game. Detroit's defense outside of their front 4 is very mediocre. A quality pass rush can mask a lot of problems in other areas of the defense. Pass protection is going to be absolutely critical in this game and I'm sure Aaron's going to be a bit smarter this year protecting himself. If the offensive line can do an adequate job of keeping Aaron upright, it could be a long day for the Lions DBs. This defense coughed up 35 points to a mediocre at best Carolina team at home.

I do fully anticipate this game to be a shoot out though. Stafford has been prone to some interceptions the past few weeks and probably still isn't 100%. The defense for the most part is healthy. Neal got about 15 snaps on Sunday which was a good warm up so hopefully he can continue to get back into game shape. Even though going into Detroit was a tough game last year, less we forget how good Aaron has been indoors the past 12 months. No reason to think he can't continue his campaign for league MVP on Thursday with a quality game and especially looking to rebound from Sunday.

There is a vikling bozo infecting this thread with sneering vikling idiocy of a 2-10 humanoid.

This is the Packers 34th game on Thanksgiving.
For the last few years they are playing every other year.
The Packers are in demand.

The viklings were last invited to Detroit for Thanksgiving in 1995 and only twice since the 1970 merger. If it were a random selection the viklings would be there every 8th year on average.

Clearly America and the NFL do not want the vikling goatsuckers to pollute a national holiday.

Hmmmm.....looks like the last time the Packers went to Detroit on Thanksgiving and being 10-0, the Lions kicked their ass. Ha! sacked Bart Starr 11 times!!!!

GB has a history of losing in Detroit. But most of those where in the 1950's. GB's recent history is 3-4. I will take my chances on Thursday.

I'm going to need help with this from our resident choking expert, but I believe "chocking" should be spelled "choking". vikesrule, care to help out?

Didn't watch or catch much of the highlights to the Lions/Panthers game...is Stafford's throwing hand still injured? If he is throwing anything like he did against the Bears, then I expect the Packers defense to have 1-3 interceptions..1 TD.

Pressure, pressure, and more pressure on Stafford. The kid hates getting hit and makes big time (dumb) mistakes when he has someone running after him. Pressure won't allow him time to watch Johnson run a streak down the field so he can float a crap pass to him and watch him catch it over 3 defenders.

Protect Rodgers. Suh is as dirty as they come and if given the chance, I am sure he will try to rag doll him...

Our offensive line hasn't been taking much this season. If something happens that shouldn't happen (Lang getting kicked in the junk) the offensive line reacts. I think this is going to be an extremely chippy game with a lot of bad intentions.

I don't think Rodgers accuracy will be an issue this week. I did see him hold his elbow after a play when he threw it behind Jennings on a slant. I am hoping there isn't some minor issue there and just the cold playing games with his head. Maybe his elbow was cold? 🤔

Would be nice to see a resemblance of week 9 to week 10. Packers defense sharted themselves against the Chargers and came back in week 10 to smash the suck out of the Vikings. Maybe a close call against the Bucs in week 11 will bring out another fired up defense in week 12.

Packers- 35
Lions- 24

Gotta love all the "Johnny-come-lately" Lions fans...

I'm hoping 🇲🇲 keeps someone back to chip Suh. Don't want to see 🇦🇷 taking nasty hits like that. I would have ejected Suh for that crap. That's not trying to tackle the QB. That's trying to injure him.

I wondering what the check down situation will be this week. For the last two weeks, in the first half of the game Rodgers has tended to hold the ball, take sacks, or take off and run with the ball even when there is a wide open check down available. Come the second half Rodgers begins to take the check down that’s available to him. Either Clements or MM are reminding him at the half that he can take a check down or it’s a game plan thing.

Anyway, with the way Rodgers was treated against the Lions in Detroit last season, I hope the check downs are available and I hope Rodgers takes them. It’d also be nice if Green Bay could get a run game going, but maybe we don’t even need it.

I have no idea what kind of score we’re going to see this week. Last season we beat them in Green Bay to the tune of 28-26, then at Detroit we took a loss at 3-7. I guess I expect it to look more like the former than the latter, especially considering Rodgers went out of the game in Detroit last season.

Zombie, for some reason the NFL is trying to cover Suh's true image of being a dirty player. I have no idea why but that is a lot of dirt to sweep under the carpet. For some reason I feel like he THINKS he needs to make the big, nasty hits (or dummy tosses) to be considered a great player and that just isn't true.

I am sure 🇲🇲 will dial something up to keep 🇦🇷 protected though.

11-0 [rockon]

Much more worried about Tulloch and Avril when it comes to their defenders. Avril has the speed to beat either of our tackles for an unblocked sack.

I can sense the false bravado.

The smell of Packer fan fear is most palpable.
It permeates cyberspace.

Mr. Suh, meet Mr. Rodgers.

Maybe the Packers can sign Burt Reynolds to a one-game contract to reprise a couple plays from The Longest Yard.

After all, he owes the Packers after mistakenly doing said things to #66.
