Packers: 3 bold predictions for Week 14 matchup vs. Lions

The Packers are set for another big performance in Week 14.

Aiming to complete the season sweep over the Detroit Lions, the Green Bay Packers visit Ford Field in Week 14.

The last Packers play in that stadium was Mason Crosby’s game-winning field goal as time expired. Green Bay hadn’t led all game — or at any point in either game against Detroit in 2019 — but still came away with the win and series sweep.

The Week 2 meeting between these two teams this season looked to be following a similar pattern with the Lions racing out to a 14-3 lead. The Packers responded much quicker this time, though, scoring 31 unanswered points to put the game away.

Head coach Matt LaFleur will be hoping his team can make a fast start against Detroit at the fourth attempt. That said, I’m sure he’d be a fine with a repeat of any of his past three games against the Lions with all of them resulting in victories.

For Green Bay, this game is an opportunity to move to 10 wins on the season, which could be enough to win the NFC North. For Detroit, this is a must-win to remain in contention for a wild-card berth.

With the Packers heading to Ford Field in Week 14, here are three bold predictions.
