This is my rough guess as well. I think this is the game that all of our injuries finally catches up to us. I hope I am wrong but think this will be a loss.
Certainly possible, just a reminder that we didnt have hutch last time either (still wont) but we are adding zadarius and jamo who was suspended. Branch was ejected.
Also, we wont have to deal with the same elements that you mention they dealt with last time (we did as well).
Could we lose, yes, but i dont buy all of the “they sucked last time and we played great therefore wont happen again”. We didnt play great and were missing players ourself, considering that and love seems due for a turnover filled game… i think we got a shot
34-27 Lions. Pick six or a strip sack provides the winning td.
Lions 38 - 27
Yes to all this but we will also be playing against Love instead of Willis
@Miles We played against love last time… he was 23-39 with 273 yards and 1 int
We did?? Why am I remembering us playing v Malik? I must have switched timelines again
Here is the box score, but ya love played. I actually think with that rain willis may have been the better choice with his running ability but hey idc because they didnt play willis and we won.
And no i am not saying willis is better than love in any way outside of athleticism and i dont see that as a hot take.
Well pinch my nips and call me Dolly. Guess I’ll go watch this timelines version of the highlights
I will go with 24-20 Lions. Both QBs throw for 2.
Okay Dolly
I agree. I think on D, it will be about picks vs. PI on the long ball. And we have to score a lot to win.
Bend don’t break. Trade fgs for TDs. Lions plenty good enough to win.
27-16 Lions
The Packers talking about their “new found physicality”.
Since losing to the Lions in Green Bay they’ve:
Had a bye week
Beat the Bears (currently 4-8)
Beat the 49ers (currently 5-7)
Beat the Dolphins (currently 5-7)
It’s much easier to be physical against lesser opponents. They had their toughest time against the Bears, as did we, but we also dominated the Bears for a complete half of football.
31-20 Lions.
Prediction: I will watch the game on Amazon Prime and be on the edge of my seat the whole time.
31-30 Lions

I actually think these injuries help us from a motivational standpoint. All of the media is picking against us. It’s all doom and gloom.
This is A+ Detroit vs. Everybody material.
Green Bay 34
Detroit 27
Detroit 41
Green Bay 24
