Green Bay at Detroit

October 25, 2026
img4:25 PM Eastern

Detroit's last game was a 45-21 win at Arizona on October 11, and the Lions have had a bye to rest since. Green Bay is 4-2 and has won three straight, against Detroit's 3-2. The Packers have held their last three opponents to a combined 34 points. Jared Goff has thrown 12 touchdown passes with no interceptions and a 111.3 passer rating through five games. Jahmyr Gibbs has 504 rushing yards and nine touchdowns in that stretch. Gibbs also catches the ball like a receiver, and Goff is 25 of 30 for 258 yards and two touchdowns when he throws to running backs. Green Bay ranks 18th in rushing yards allowed per game, so that backfield will get its touches. The Lions' injury report has three names, and Brian Branch and Cade Mays both practiced fully after missing time. Green Bay has 12 on its report, including starting linebacker Zaire Franklin and leading pass rusher Lukas Van Ness, both limited Thursday. Jordan Love was a full participant after a sore back, and the Packers' offense was not explosive in its 23-13 win over Dallas. Detroit is rested and healthy at home, with the league's most dangerous backfield facing the 18th-ranked run defense, and I'm laying the points with the Lions on Sunday afternoon.

0.5 unit on Detroit -3 (-115) (risk 0.5 to return 0.93)
