Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Prediction
The Packers begin this game with a 9-3 record. Despite the strong record, the Packers begin the night third in the division. With a win tonight, the Packers will cut the Lion's lead over them to one game.
Detroit won the first matchup between these two teams, 24-14, in Green Bay.
The Lions took a 17-3 lead into the half and never looked back. Detroit's offensive performance was the worst of the season, with 261 yards and eight first downs.
Green Bay racked up 411 yards on offense but struggled closing drives. Jordan Love threw a pick-six as the half-ended, which was the difference in the game.
Detriot comes into this game with a record of 11-1.
That record is tied with the Kansas City Chiefs for the best record in the NFL. The Lions control their own destiny to claim the number one seed in the NFC.
With a win tonight, the Lions will create more separation in the division and likely make it a battle between them and the Minnesota Vikings. The Lions have won an NFL-best ten consecutive games.
Detriot is coming off a thrilling 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears on Thanksgiving Day.

Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers DraftKings Pick6 Picks
1: Jordan Love Over 251.5 Yards
Love successfully threw the ball in the first matchup between these two teams, he just couldn't find the end zone when he needed to.
Green Bay will rely on the passing game again tonight to move the football. The game script will bode well for this prop.
2. Jared Goff Over 249.5 Passing Yards
The game script will also support this prop as I expect both teams to take to the air tonight.
Green Bay will sell out against the run, forcing the Lions to throw the football. In a close back-and-forth game, Goff will exceed this total tonight.
3. Jameson Williams: Over 48.5 rec yards
Detroit's burner has exceeded this total in four of his last five games and should have no issue doing the same tonight.
Williams is the Lions' top deep threat and could easily clear this prop in one play. We are getting a steal of a line on Williams tonight.
4. David Montgomery Under 14.5 Rec Yards
Montgomery has enjoyed a great season, but not in the passing game as Jahmyr Gibbs is the team's top back in passing scenarios.
Montgomery will easily stay under this total tonight as he's much more of a focal point in the power run game.
