I think the Lions are much improved from last year, but there's still no reason to think they can end their 18 year skid in GB. We're the better team, we're coming off a bye, we're nearly full strength and we NEED this game badly to get back on track. 31-17 Pack.

I think it's 18 games in WI, not Green Bay. We played some at Milw County Stadium.

I'm going to make a bold prediction: This will be the first week the Packers don't allow an opposing defender to post a multiple-sack game. We can do it, I know we can!

I am worried about the Lions because they looked okay against the Steelers, and okay is good enough to beat the Packers if they don't play well. I think the Pack will win, but I wouldn't give them a lot of points.

I made the same prediction in the Rams game.. we allowed 2 sacks total... Foster lost. ;)

But both sacks were by Leonard Little. I can't think of any Lions players who are good pass rushers (I think Jason Hunter is their team leader in sacks), but then, the Packers turned that Odom guy from Cincinnati into a star, so anything could happen.

Sorry Rock i should have phrased it as alot of posters instead of everyone. The Lions are gaining confidence and if this was the turkey day game i would take the lions by 8 points, but its in gb and im saying the Packers by 3.

Sadly the bookies have the spread at +13.5 to the lions now (I think the bookies are drunk). Last week when playing the SB champs they only had a +11 point spread - and the lions gave the champs a run for their money.
So they are obviously better then last year and getting better each week IMO.

So what I want to know do the bookies really think the packers are better then the steelers now?

I might go for a +9.5 to the lions for the spread but 13.5 is too high.

oh btw I did pick the lions last week with their 11 spread (but I had them tied with a few other teams so ended up flubbering up the bet).
freaking niners and houston.

I just saw the point spread and i thought the same thing, they must be drunk and your 11 pont is close i would say 9.5 giving the Packers 3 for being at home. If i was able to bet i would put my money on the Lions to cover the spread.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

For any of the Lions that were part of the team last year, not only a Divisional foe, but the team that sealed their fate in the history books. If the Lions can get out to a fast jump on us and score some points early, could be a nail biter of a day. On the other hand, I'm optimistic that with yet another round of the Oline musical chairs, we might break out in a good way, and have us all laughing and smiling at halftime.

Any team or player that doesn't take each and every game of a season seriously doesn't deserve to be in the league.

The Lions are certainly better than they were last year - they compete and they compete hard. They're also a divisional foe, and you don't take those lightly.

I think the Packers will win, because I think they feel like they HAVE to win. They read the press just like we do, and they can't be happy about the press pretty much writing them off at this point. This is a pride game - the Packers are a better team than the Lions, and they don't want to lose to them.

P.S. Odom has been getting sacks all year - Zimmer would seem to be have more to do with that than Rodgers. I get that nobody expected Cincy to be good when we played them, but now that they've beaten the Steelers and the Ravens, perhaps we should stop acting like they're a bunch of slappies.
