Green Bay Packers: 5 Things to Know about the Detroit Lions
By Paul Bretl
As the Green Bay Packers prepare to take on the Lions on Monday Night Football, here are five things to know about this Detroit team.
After a big-time road win in Dallas a week ago, the Green Bay Packers have another tough matchup on their hands this week as the Detroit Lions are coming to Lambeau Field. The winner of this game will be in sole possession of first place in the NFC North through the first six weeks of the season.
The Packers have dominated this matchup for the better part of 15 years but the Lions currently have a four-game winning streak against Green Bay that needs to come to an end. Once again this Packers’ defense will have their hands full as they will be asked to slow down Matthew Stafford, Kerryon Johnson, Kenny Golladay, and Marvin Jones. However, this Green Bay offense appears to be finding their groove the last two weeks.
