What a turn of events for the NFC North. After years of the Green Bay Packers dunking on the Detroit Lions and generally being on different planes of competition, the Lions beat the Packers soundly at home this weekend and held them to just nine points — the fewest amount of points an Aaron Rodgers-led Packers team has scored against the Lions since 2014. Neither team is having a stellar season, the Lions are 2-6 now while the Packers fell to 3-6, but for the first time in a long time it felt like they were on similar playing fields.
How bad have things gotten in Green Bay? They're eye level with the Lions — who arguably have a brighter future
