The Green Bay Packers will likely need to follow a familiar blueprint to beat the visiting Detroit Lions on Thursday night at Lambeau Field.
Win the pressure/protect battle. Avoid turnovers. Come up clutch in the big situations. Through three games, the Packers have just one turnover, are plus-six in sacks (three allowed, nine created) and rank in the top 11 in the NFL on both offense and defense on third down and in the red zone.
As a result, the Packers are 2-1 entering Week 4 despite some inconsistent play in all three phases to start the season.
