Packers at Lions Thursday, December 3rd, 2015
An improbable victory at Green Bay in Week 11 has given the Detroit Lions life.
Since Week 8, the Packers appear to have lost their ability to win.
Looking for a fourth consecutive victory, the Lions can sweep the season series from the struggling Packers for the first time in 24 years Thursday night at Ford Field.
Detroit (4-7) is last in the NFC North and three games behind second-place Green Bay, but the Lions are playing the better football among the two. Detroit's 18-16 victory at Lambeau Field on Nov. 15 was its first there since 1991, which is also the last season it took both meetings with the Packers (7-4).
