00:00Lions and Packers tonight in Motown. Lions coming off a very close Thanksgiving game

00:08against the Chicago Bears. Matt, is this a game you think the Packers have a shot to at least

00:14keep things interesting toward the end of the season or are the Lions gonna, well I mean I guess

00:18Minnesota's still very much in the mix here when you think about it. Lions lose the rest of their

00:21games, maybe Minnesota wins it, but uh three and a half point favorites total of 51 and a half and

00:29some good rest for both teams so maybe a competitive game tonight. Yeah I think it really

00:34will be a competitive game. You know the first game these these two teams played it was in Green

00:38Bay and the Lions won pretty easily. I think the final score didn't quite indicate how dominant

00:43the Lions were that day but you know the Lions are really banged up right now especially on defense.

00:50They have three defensive linemen including D.J. Reeder who are going to be out for this game.

00:54Taylor Decker's out for this game. This is on top of some of their linebacker injuries

00:58that they already had even before last week and uh you know we saw them last week. They

01:04dominant one half, not so dominant the next half to say the least and the Packers are a good team.

01:10They're a proud team. I think there's a little bit of bad blood between these teams. You know

01:14two of the Lions touchdowns in their last game were scored on fourth down which I don't think

01:18Matt LaFleur appreciated and I really think the Packers have a good chance to win this game. I

01:23think the numbers are a little too high in the Lions favor right now and I think this is going

01:27to be a fantastic game but you know that Lions offense is dominant. It's been dominant all year

01:35and I think they'll score points but I think the Packers are really going to be able to run

01:40the ball on them with all those injuries along the offensive line or defensive line sorry.
