The Green Bay Packers hope to be better equipped for their rematch against the Detroit Lions, scheduled for this Thursday night. It will be both team’s third game in 11 days, with each coming off a win this past Thursday on Thanksgiving.
The Packers handled their business against the Miami Dolphins, defeating the uncommon AFC opponent at a flurry-filled Lambeau Field 30-17. Meanwhile, the Lions also escaped with a narrow 23-20 win on Turkey Day over the Chicago Bears.
The last time these two teams faced, Detroit jumped out to a 24-3 lead that Green Bay could not overcome.
