The Green Bay Packers started the season 6-0, looking every bit like the best team in the NFC that many thought they were. Since then, they've lost four out of five games, and are a game behind the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC North.
The Lions, on the other hand, have won three games in a row, and while they might not be in playoff discussions, you can bet they'll be focused on handing the Packers another loss in hopes of sweeping them for the first time since 1991.
When we look at the NFC playoff picture, it would benefit the Chicago Bears to see the Packers lose another game tonight, which would drop their record to 7-5 on the season.
