Tuesday Opponent Preview: The hated Green Bay Packers

Lions (2-1) vs Packers (2-1)
8:15PM, Lambeau Field
Last week: Green Bay pulled off a come from behind victory against the Saints, 18-17.

What can you say. Packers and Lions for the early North lead. The BAD MAN is gone, and Love is in his place. Love is weird. He's played good but there are some BUTS to his performance. His completion percentage is just 53.1%, and he's thrown for just 656 yards for the season. Both those stats put him towards the very bottom of the league, yet he has 7 TDs vs 1 INT which puts him towards the top of the league. For comparison, Goff is at 69.9% and 819 yards with 5 TDs vs 2 INTs, and Goff hasn't really put his best foot forward yet. Yet the Packers are 2-1. Love is doing just enough to put the Packers in a position to win. The Packers defense looks fairly stout, but have the 6th worst rush defense thus far, which includes a rushing gashing by the Falcons, who beat the Packers. Then again, Rashan Gary returned from injury last week and feasted on the Saints.

Will Love's warning signs catch up to him? Will the Lions exploit the Packers' run defense? Will the Packers' hold on the Lions past shine through? Will the Lions crank it up and make Tom Grossi cry? Don't forget to tweet at Grossi for every great play that Brian Branch makes, a new and busy tradition.

This is looking more and more like an exciting game. LET'S GET IT ON!
