I'm 100% in my picks this year...even tho I wanted to pick the Lions In an upset, out of frustration? I'll go with my gut. The Lions arnt that good, and that's why we win.

The Packers don't need to just win tomorrow they need to win convincingly, even with domination. A close, struggling decision against the Lions at Lambeau or (crowd gasp) a loss after 24 straight home wins and alarm bells and red flags will be going off and up at 1265 Lombardi Avenue.

I would think at least a 38-17 game should be on order. The sort of game in which the Packers put a complete game together in all phases.

Say around 450 yds on offense, at least 4 td passes by Aaron Rodgers and a 300+ yds passing day. And a 100 yard team rushing show.

The defense gets at least 6 sacks, 3 interceptions and doesn't allow Detroit to score until the game is a done deal and in "garbage time."

I don't think they will dominate the Lions and it'll be a tough game. Packers should win this game though. Things that I'd like to see is improvement in 3rd downs on both sides of the ball. Our offense needs to get much better on converting those, while our defense needs to finally start stopping on 3rd downs. I would also like to see some new looks on offense and get rid of the ball quicker.

I highly doubt this defense contains Stafford. But being at home, they should play better. I don't expect anything different from our defense since its the same thing it's been for the pass few years. They'll have a good good games and make you believe they've turned it around. But then suck for majority of the year.

Last. I want this team to show some damn emotions. This team has hardly shown any heart. The peppers and ha ha incident is the only time they showed some emotion and it was due to frustrating at sucking bad. Hit guys hard, make them think twice before catching the ball, make stafford get impatient. And same on offense, attack holes and receivers fight for yards

I think it'll be 31-23

I want to see Aaron Rodgers remain in the pocket and throw the ball quicker and more accurately to the right receiver, the one that happens to be a bit more open, and not be afraid to throw it into a tight window on occasion.

Out of the clear blue western skies...
I echo the sentiments of those posters who may feel that a win is to be expected and should be no big deal. But a loss would be unexpected and a sign that something is deeply amiss with an alleged championship-caliber team. Something in-between will probably light-up this forum with theories.

If ever there was a trap game...

The fact that Lacey's groin injury was dismissed as minor earlier in the week shows how little anyone outside the locker room knows about injuries in the NFL. I suspect Lang and Sitton are having much more trouble w their backs than any of us know, which would explain a lot of the o line problems the last month.

I think we will see different schemes on both sides of the ball and maybe some different players seeing some playing time on offense, especially WR. Just a thought. I think we get better and win 38-17

Yeah so should we R-E-L-A-X at this point or should we really start getting worried. The losses vs the broncos and the panthers were pretty ugly, but todays game really had me speechless. I am not sure what Mike McCarthy's practice plan is this week but something has got to change.. Fast. If we can't even pull out a win against the lions, then we don't have an"easy" game for the rest of the season.

That was like watching two teams that really really really really did not want to win

meh... much easier to relax when it's a hiccup out of the gate rather than in november. don't have 12 games ahead of us to fix problems at this point. needs to happen now or never, and if it's not going to happen vs. detroit, then ehhhhhhhhh

The Packers came back and had a chance for the win with a 52 yard field goal, but Crosby muffed the kick. I guess it's for the best. A win may have sent the superficial message nothing is wrong. Maybe now corrections will be made.

Jeez, some of you guys give up on the team far too easily, or so it seems.

No one is giving up there is just an awful lot wrong with this team right now. Everyone complaining will be rooting for a big win against the Queens next week but something is seriously rotten in titletown at this exact moment
