GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Detroit Lions are the best team in the NFC, if not the NFL. On Thursday night, even with 62 percent of their sacks and 69 percent of their quarterback hits on the sideline because of injuries, Detroit beat the Green Bay Packers 34-31.
The Packers probably are going to rebound from this loss to qualify for the playoffs. The Packers almost always reach the postseason, though, so who cares? The only thing that matters – the only thing that should matter, anyway – is the Super Bowl.
After getting swept by the Lions for the second time in three years, is there any reason to believe the Packers can beat the Lions in a potential third matchup?
