Hi, Jaguars fans!     Green Bay Packers visit Ford Field for the Detroit Lions first-ever appearance on Thursday Night Football.  Both the Packers and Lions still have the accustomed 7-day period between games, since both Detroit defeated the Philadelphia Eagles handily 45-17, while the Chicago Bears upset the Packers 16-13 in a rainy Lambeau Field.  Packers are 3-1 in THNF, while Detroit is 0-0 and are playing their first inaugural Thursday Night Football game, other than their traditional Thanksgiving Day Game. 

 

Packers lead the all-time series 97-68-7. NO injuries, and GO LIONS!!!!! :yes:    B)  :thumbsup:  ^_^

Why do you want the Lions to win? GO PACKERS!

 Technically,  the Lions played a couple of Thursday Night games around the turn of the century.    These games were played before Thursday Night Football became a weekly or near weekly event. 

 

 In the game in late November, 2000,  Cris Carter caught his 1000th career reception.   I remember it like it was yesterday.   In the same game, CB Bryant Westbrook had his career derailed with a torn Achilles tenden on the dreaded Metrodome turf.

 

  A few weeks earlier,  former Jag RB James Stewart had a 3 TD game in Tampa for the Lions in an Oct. 2000 Thursday Night game.

I wouldn't mind seeing Detroit win

Would you rather see Detroit win than Green Bay?

 

Again, GO PACKERS! (I know D6 will hate me for that.)

---

Detroit got the first one,not this one

---

I just want Rodgers to throw some touchdowns for fantasy.

---

No Fun

I don't care who wins as long as Rodgers gets that stick out of his rear and throw me some tds! He's cost me a couple of close games already.

Detroit barely got the first one. Everyone makes a big deal about the fact Green Bay lost without reporting the final score. It was 18-16 IIRC. Yes, it was a bad game and the Packers should have scored more points, but it was not like they got blown out. Clearly it was not a sign the Lions are better on offense.

Who do you all think will win this one?

Close game, Pack gets out of their funk

I can't wait to see the Packers do it.

 

NFL.com's poll question today is: "What would be more striking?

 

Packers miss the playoffs (53%)

Lions make the playoffs (47%)

 

I voted for Green Bay missing the playoffs.

Holy crap is anyone else's game jumping all over the screen? I can't tell if it's their cameras or my service.


Edit: I think it's my service. The channels were pulsing. Made me feel nauseus.

I dont watch many Packer games but what's their problem?  They seem a bit washed.

I'm going to have to start benching Rodgers

A 3 and out here and this thing could get out of hand.

Rodgers is killing me! Ugh! Horrible!

Why did he turn into a scrub in the middle of the season?

He's playing scared it seems. I can't put my finger on it but it brings back bad memories of gabbert trying to sack himself. He's in a funk and needs to snap out of it.

My team has at least been able to win despite him, but I lost my 2nd game last week, he's looking like a liability actually watching him in action.  I had Flacco who had decent numbers but he's done lol
