Total: 55.00 | -110.00 Over
Result: Push
I'm expecting a shootout here.
Detroit is better at home than it is on the road. There's something about friendly confines that works well for Matt Stafford, as note that the total has gone over the number in five straight for the Lions at Ford Field.
The Packers' offense revolves around Aaron Rodgers, which means that whenver these teams get together, we can expect a shootout. And that's definetly been the case, as these teams have seen the total eclipse the posted number in seven of their last ten overall and in four of their last five games played in Detroit.
Green Bay has been good on the road as well, winning four of their last six away from friendly confines.
Rodgers is having another great season, as he's completed almost 70 percent of his passes for 3,395 yards, 36 touchdowns and only four interceptions.
And he's been particularly sharp of late, as he has three or more touchdown passes in six of his last seven games.
Aaron Jones leads a decent ground game which averages 124.2 yards per contest. The Green Bay offense has had to be pretty good most days as well, as its offense hasn't been fantastic, allowing 24.9 points per game.
No matter what Detroit's record is, there's always a couple of games that it always "GETS UP FOR" each year. It's annual Thanksgiving Day contest is one which players always have circled on their calendars. Same thing whenever it faces Green Bay.
The Lions have lost four of their last five. Matt Stafford has 3,278 passing yards, 21 touchdowns and nine interceptions.
Stafford has at least three touchdown passes in three of his last six games, so as I outlined up top, I definitely expect some offensive fireworks between these two veteran gun-slinging quarterbacks.
The ground game isn't anything to write home about for the Lions, as Adrian Peterson leads a rushing attack which averages only 93.6 yards per game.
Detroit's weakness though once again isn't on the offensive side of the ball, but rather the defensive where it concedes 29.8 points per game.
What more do I need to point out? The Packers have gone over 30 points in five of their last seven. Detroit enters off a wild, high-scoring win over Chicago, so the Lions won't be rolling over either.
So when you add it all up here, in my opinion, this one is going to fly over the number sooner, rather than later.
