Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Prediction
The winner of this game will sit at the top of the NFC North.
We are only four weeks into the season, but the NFC North will be a two-team race between the Packers and the Lions, as both the Chicago Bears and the Minnesota Vikings are off to 0-3 starts.
The last time that the Lions won the North was in 1993.
Detroit is the current favorite to win the North via DraftKings Sportsbook.
The Lions franchise has been around for a long time, but they still have their eyes on their first Super Bowl trophy. The Detroit faithful feel as if this could be the year.
The Lions possess one of the best offenses in football, led by former first-overall pick Jared Goff.
Amon St. Brown is quickly pricking himself as a top-ten wide receiver in football.
The Lions have two rookies that have played crucial roles in their offense: running back Jahmyr Gibbs and tight end Sam LaPorta.
Green Bay is off to a 2-1 start to the surprise of many.
There were a lot of question marks surrounding the Packers entering the campaign.
This was the first time in two decades that a quarterback named Aaron Rodgers was not leading the Packers offense.
Jordan Love looks like he is the guy through the first three weeks. Love, a former first-round pick, has shown a lot of good qualities early in the year.
Love brought the Packers back from a 17-0 deficit in the fourth quarter in Week 3 against the New Orleans Saints, who have one of the best defenses in football.
Green Bay is expected to get their two best playmakers back on offense tonight in, Aaron Jones and Christian Watson.
Jones played in the Packers' season opener, while Watson will be making his first appearance of the year.
Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers Pick

Reed has a touch percentage of just nine percent, which will go down with Watson and Jones back in the lineup tonight.
