NFL : 2* GREEN BAY
Back on October 17th the Detroit Lions played host to these Packers at Ford Field. That game was on a Sunday following the Pack’s 48-27 destruction at the hands of the Titans on MNF. GB left Motor City with a 38-10 win kick-starting a 6 game win streak.
Last week GB traveled to Philly looking not only to go to 7 straight wins but to also erase the 4th and forever play that sent the Eagles to the NFC Championship and ended the Packers season. Instead Philly was up by what seemed to be 10 TD before the 1st half ended. So now, GB is looking at Detroit again.
Brett Favre has built a legend around the cold weather and today while it may climb above the magic number of 34 degrees ( Favre is 30-0 during the regular season when it’s below that number) the conditions will be downright frightful for a team that’s used to a controlled environment.
The GB forecast is calling for a 60% chance of “slushy” snow showers as well as wind with gusts up to 40 MPH. The Lions won’t be able to get out of Wisconsin fast enough. The Packers are also 6-0-1 ATS their last 7 in this series at Lambeau.
