Packers vs. Lions 

The Detroit Lions are coming off of a sound defeat to the Carolina Panthers on the road and will be looking to bounce back at home against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers.  The Packers held on to beat the New York Jets at home but I think this one will go to the Lions.

Their offense led by Calvin Johnson and Matthew Stafford is performing better and their defense is playing really well right now and that combination plus the home field advantage should get them the win.

Winner:  Lions

Score prediction:       27-24  Lions  

Points spread:      Lions -2.5

Over/under:  53 – Under
