Keys to the Game:
Detroit: David Akers made all 4 of his FG attempts last week. The Lions need every red zone trip to be a TD to win in Green Bay.
Green Bay: Franklin and Lacy might sound like an 80s cop show but they give the Packers a genuine running threat and that makes Rodgers likely to have a huge day.
Verdict: This is a must win for the Packers at 1-2 coming off their bye and it could be a classic. The Lions will score their points as this Packers defense is stopping very little but they won’t keep up with Rodgers. Who cares that the total points line is at 53.5? Not me – this game will smash that number.
Prediction: Green Bay by 7
Suggested Bet: 5 points over 53.5 points at 10/11
