T.M. Selection: Lions/Packers OVER.

I am on the over in the Detroit Lions vs Green Bay Packers game on Monday. The Lions lost their game last week but they a put in a very good effort. They were down 31-10 at the half in that game. That alone is 41 total points in the 1st half but they did not just lay down and die after. They kept fighting and cut that lead down as they ended up losing 41-33 in a very high scoring game. Jared Goff loves to throw the ball and he is still figuring out the weapons he has in Detroit so I expect him to be throwing the ball from the start of the game trying to take advantage of what looked like a very bad Green Bay team in week 1. He will want to score as many points as he can quickly before the Packers find their footing. The Packers only scored 3 points in week 1 and now Rodgers will be under fire a bit needing to put on a good show here before people start to speculate what issues are going on over in Green Bay. He will be able to put up some points early and throughout the whole game against a Lions defense that did not look good allowing 41 points in week 1. The Packers defense also looked like swiss cheese in week 1 so the Lions will be able to score here as well. This one could turn into a shootout going back and forth so I am on the over.

T.M. Prediction: 21-14 Packers.
