Congrats to Uncle Rico! Rodgers finally gets benched.

If the Packers are serious about winning in the playoffs, it's a good move

[tower912]

Detroit is going to the playoffs and they'll win a game when they get in

If the game was at Ford Field, then maybe. A dome team at Lambeau in January?
A team that has no experience in big games against an experienced team?
Goff in cold weather?

Pack by double digits.

My thoughts exactly. I don't know how many games Detroit has won outside in cold weather in Dec/Jan, but I could probably count them on one finger.

Lambeau in January hasn't had any mystique in decades

[4everwarriors]

Pack has essentially been in the playoffs the past 4 weeks. Figurin' they'll win, but it'll be a bitch, hey?

[4everwarriors]

Gotta figure dis game gets flexed ta prime tyme, aina?

Not with Seattle holding the tie breaker over the Lions. If Seattle wins, the Lions would have nothing to play for. 

My guess is Jags / Titans.

The Lions in January have never had any mystique.

I'm going to start calling you Muggsy

[Herman Cain]

Going to be a physical brawl next week.

Packers defense had some get up and go today. I think that momentum will carry forward to the Lions game.

Momentum isn't real

LOL.   OK.  Make the case why Detroit wins.

They're better

[BM1090]

They're better

I actually agree they are better, but they aren't winning next week at Lambeau.

[tower912]

They're better

Perhaps.  But they aren't ready to win a win or go home game at Lambeau yet.   

You talk about the Lambeau mystique.   Part of that is outside in the cold.   Detroit played their worst game in two months outside in the cold.

Nope.  Jags\Titans scheduled for Saturday.

It'll be 26 and partly sunny according to the early forecast.  The Packers current QB has been pretty mediocre in the cold recently.

Listen, you're probably right but I think there's more than a real chance for the Lions to win this game

[tower912]

Detroit has had a wonderful second half of the season.   They spit the bit a week ago in cold weather on the road when they had the opportunity to control their own destiny.   I think the air is going to be too cold and the lights too bright this time.

[The Sultan]

I don't think the problem will be the cold. The problem will be the playing surface. I think you saw that yesterday with Minnesota.

The Lions can beat the Packers.  While I don't wish that to happen, it is a possibility.  GB needs to be prepared.  Lions would love to be the spoiler.

[tower912]

Also, GB controls its own destiny.    Detroit needs Seattle to lose, or else beating GB means nothing.     Other than knocking GB out of the playoffs.

I mean, that ought to be motivation enough.  You can't get in without winning.

Restore the roar!

This is a good time for Detroit fans. They get a Playoff game this week against Green Bay. They also will have 2 high picks in the 1st round to strengthen their defense. Detroit fans should be more optimistic about their future than they have been for many years.
