The Detroit Lions don’t have a rival. I know, I know, you all really, really hate the Green Bay Packers, and I do, too. But to have a true rivalry, it needs to go both ways. And while the Lions have done a much better job playing competitively against the Packers as of late, they simply don’t hold a candle to the Wisconsin franchise. Green Bay leads the series 102-72-7 all time, and their franchise accomplishments dwarf those of the Lions.
It hurts to even type these words, but the Lions are nothing more than an annoying little gnat to the Packers, even as we Lions fans obsess about hating everything Green Bay.
