ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- The Detroit Lions have said, over and over again, they are focused on just the next opponent: the Green Bay Packers.
It’s an absolute cliché. But at this point for the Lions, where the only path to a potential playoff berth is to win every game the rest of the way, that is legitimately the only option Detroit has left.
So what would it take for the Lions to beat Green Bay on Thursday night, on national television, to give Detroit its first sweep of the Packers since 1991?
