Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions Prediction
Gibbs was given the opportunity to lead Detroit’s backfield when David Montgomery suffered a rib injury, and he made the most of it. Now with Montgomery healthy, Gibbs has earned a larger share of the workload and has actually out-snapped Montgomery in each of his first two games back.
The Lions are 8.5-point favorites, and are expected to roll at home. That favors a positive game script for their ground game. Gibbs has a longest rush prop set at 13.5, a number he’s cleared in six of eight games this season. Expect him to have plenty of opportunities to rip off a long gain today.
