How badly will the Packers embarrass the Lions on Thanksgiving?

[edjr 6,607]

Whatever the spread is, i'll take the packers.

 

should be a 3 td win fairly easy.

 

45 to 20

Pretty uneducated post but it's to be expected I guess when considering the source.

 

Bears and Lions can create problems for the Packers because they can get pressure on Rodgers from their front 4.

 

Packers D gives more than it takes away.

 

This should be a very close game. Green Bay can expect Detroit's very best shot. This is a huge game for Detroit and I'm assuming they've learned from losing their heads in the Chicago game. I think they'll be playing smarter.

the packers are the greatest team in the history of the universe. they'll be resting all their starters by the halftime.

that was last year. last year doesn't matter. the packers and shooter mcgavin are 10-0 and are by far the greatest undefeated team in the history of the nfl. show some respect

I fell dumb if it was just a trip. Usually don't see anything about the NFC North from No Life. I guess I underestimated how miserably low No Life could get. My fault.

A fair assessment is this game could go many different ways. It could be a battle to the finish with the winner scoring the last touchdown with no time left on the clock (45-44). It could easily go as predicted in the OP with GB running too far out in front for Detroit to catch up. Of course, if the Lions get to Rodgers and concuss him; well, that's a totally different ball game altogether. Not that anyone would want that to happen!

As a Lions fans, I say the Lions will win.

 

As a gambling man, I'd put my money on the Pack.

vegas is freaking out that too many are on the packer bandwagon. the lions opened yesterday at +6 for that reason.

 

but why wouldn't the entire planet be on the shooter mcgavin's bandwagon? this is easily the greatest team in the history of the universe and even pre-big-bang universe.

45-34, maybe. i think you have to give the lions credit for their 2nd half adjustments, which are normally very good. they're going to score.

I'd probably take the Pack, on that line. Anything over 7 and I'd take the Lions. I think it will be a close game.

 

I just continue to be concerned with how the Lions keep falling behind early. Come from behind wins against bad teams are one thing... the Pack another.

 

On another note... I wish this was the late game. The 9:30 AM start here on the WC sucks. Baltimore vs. SF is going to be a snoozefest. As if the tryptophan won't be making us all sleepy to begin with!

Whats funny is you keep going with this...yet no Packer fan on this board is coming close to this.

I hate it being the early game too.

In laws do lunch on Thanksgiving...right in the middle of the game.

[Phurfur 70]

I think it will be a repeat of the 1962 10-0 Packers on Thanksgiving Day.

I was pretty much going to make the same post...

 

If GB plays like they did against Tampa they might get beat.

 

All I know is that this is the most excited I've been for a turkey day game in a long time.

No, right now the 1962 Packers are.

I think it will be close, potential upset maybe.

 

If the Lions are with in 2 tds at halftime I really like there chances...they have to be the best 2nd half team in the nfl.

They were beating the patriots 17 to 10 at the half last year. How'd that work out for them?

 

Lions lose by 21 easy.

[RicemanX 20]

The Lions have no shot at winning this game or their next one vs the Packers.

 

They will finish 9-7 and not make the playoffs.

And how exactly does last year have any bearing on this year?

 

You're in full blown tard mode today. Well done Ed.

Today?

[Filthy Fernadez 2,696]

I am rolling with Stafford (and possibly Pettigrew) Thursday so I'm hoping for 96-93 with Stafford/Rodgers throwing for 15 TDs each but none to Finley (my opponent's TE). Coin toss for who wins it.

Really?

 

not mostly the same players and the same coach and team? No? Well I guess not.

 

You act like i mentioned Wayne Fontes?

 

Also Hill > Stafford (who I am starting this week)

I would love for somebody to give me the Lions on Thursday and 20 pnts...they couldn't even beat the Bucs by 20 at home.

I'll take posts that make no sense for $600 Alex.

[RoadLizard 73]

As long as Jordy Nelson tearns his hamstring on the first play Im good with it.

[Cruzer 1,995]

Should the Packers win? Yes... But this is a pretty good place and time for an upset: Lions' players and fans will be really fired up and the Pack's D isn't all world, can be scored on.

 

Give me Lions 30, Pack 24 in an upset.

If Tampa Bay can put up 26 on Green Bays, NOT VERY GOOD, defense then this game might be 75-69

[Jarvis Basnight 119]

Green Bay is 2nd only to the 49ers in turnovers at +12 on the season with 22 takeaways vs 10 giveaways. Detroit isn't far behind at +9 for the season with 23 takeaways vs 14 giveways. However, 6 of the 10 interceptions thrown by Detroit have come off of Matt Stafford's broken finger in the last 2 weeks.

well, I think it will be close, but the Lions D-Line is very physical and could cause the pack problems. I would expect that this is the key to victory if the Lions are going to win.

Just checking - this is the D-Line that held the mighty Panthers to 35 points yesterday right?

Carolina can score points. 23 against Green Bay. 29 against Chicago. 27 against New Orleans....no team other than Green Bay and Houston has put up that many points against the Saints.
