These are the two best teams in the NFC North, and frankly I don’t think the Packers are as good as the Lions. Jordan Love has been so-so in his first season as starter, and the Packers aren’t in a great spot when it comes to injuries. But Green Bay does have a talented defense, and playing a revenge game, at home, on Thursday night football, the intangibles seem to be in the Packers’ favor.
