The late afternoon slate of games for Week 1 has a couple of intriguing matchups, highlighted by a divisional showdown in Green Bay when the Detroit Lions face the Packers. Detroit swept the season series last year, so Green Bay will be looking for revenge during the debut of their newest defensive weapon, former Dallas Cowboy Micah Parsons.
Detroit is a team that went through major changes during the offseason, losing both coordinators to head coaching jobs. Ben Johnson took his talents to Chicago and will make his first visit to Motown as the opposing coach in Week 2.
