Packers Vs. Lions Moneyline
There should be no doubts as to why the Green Bay Packers are heavily favored to win this matchup being that both teams are on complete opposite sides of the spectrum in terms of contending for a Super Bowl. Also, the Packers have won four straight meetings against the Lions and are in line to make it five straight.
However, Detroit may be worth a slight risk solely based on their performance in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers. The Lions found themselves down 28 points in Week 1 and rallied back to almost pull off an upset before losing by eight points.
If the Lions can keep that momentum going, they have a nice shot.
