Without going into detail I have Green Bay as a very strong play this week.
They are well positioned to exploit Detroit's weaknesses, whereas Detroit's singular offensive strength is offset by GB defensive strength.
I have GB with a decided edge on both sides of the football.

Huh? Detroit's offensive strength is throwing the football, which is GB's defensive weakness.

Dtroit's ONLY offensive strength is throwing the fb to their WR. GB has great def backfield & has been able to control the opposition's wideouts all year.
Det is not adept at protecting Kitna. GB avg almost 3 sacks per game.
Lions pass for 220 YPG & 1.3 TD per game - GB give up 190 YPG & only 1.2 passing tds per game. These stats for GB while having the lead most of the season requiring teams to throw more.
Det has no consistent running game & GB very good against the run - not a viable option for Det either.
The 3 teams that had offensive success against GB this year utilized their TE - Det doesnt have 1.
I stand by my statement.
