The Detroit Lions are dressing like their team from 60 years ago, and they’re poised to play like a championship caliber team, too.
After the Lions beat the Packers 34-20 on “Thursday Night Football” in September, the teams have gone in opposite directions. For the Lions, it was yet another confirmation of their legitimacy on a national stage. For the Packers, it was evidence that the Week 3 heroics by Jordan Love were a fluke, rather than a sign of things to come. The Lions have since cemented themselves as one of the top teams in the league while the Packers have been left in disarray.
