This is a must-win game for Green Bay and Rodgers will do anything he can to win. As a Lions fan, I have seen Aaron Rodgers beat us in a variety of ways and one of those ways is extending plays with his feet. Rodgers' best rushing game this year came against Detroit where he ran for 40 yards; we need him to produce just 10% of that total here, just four yards is all we need.
Detroit allows the most rushing yards to quarterbacks in the NFL. Detroit has allowed quarterbacks to hit this number in 13/16 games and two of those misses are Kirk Cousins who doesn’t even have 100 rush yards on the year. Rodgers has said on Pat McAfee’s podcast that he’s more willing to run late in the year when the game means more. This is essentially a playoff game so I expect him to put his body on the line.
The last time that Aaron Rodgers failed to hit this prop against Detroit was in 2019. Rodgers' last game against Detroit has multiple 10-yard-plus runs. 10 yards would push us over the top here without having to sweat kneel downs as a loss of yards, this is my favorite play of the week and I expect this to move a couple of yards at least by kickoff. Let's roll!
