Detroit pulled out an impressive win over the Falcons on Sunday who where undefeated coming into that game. Detroit has injuries but they have been able to fix some of the holes and will do so in this game as well, even without Montgomery. Green Bay had some luck go there way when Carr left the game midway with an injury and they were able to battle back on the Saints to win after the Saints missed a field goal. This is still a team with injuries and key players out like Aaron Jones. QB Jordan Love and A.J. Dillan need to step up their game against the Lions who can put up offense in a hurry and the Lion's defense which held the Falcons to six points last week. The Packers defense did not look good in their game against the Saints only to show up in the second half against back up QB Jameis Winston who stepped in mid game. The Packer's defense is still inconsistent and will have to improve against Detroit. Detroit is an experienced team headed by QB Jared Goff and the Lions should win this game by at least a field goal. This is a divisional rivalry game that will be played very tight, but Detroit will pull the win out in the end as they have a winning record against divisional rivals.
