NFL Week 9 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Packers vs. Lions
Green Bay Packers vs. Detroit Lions
The Packers desperately need to make a move at wide receiver before Week 9. Let’s be honest. Green Bay is below .500, while Aaron Rodgers is getting fed up that none of his receivers can catch passes consistently.
The Lions are already underdogs against the Dolphins this Sunday. Meanwhile, the Packers have a bye week to prepare for this game and reset.
I know Detroit should have D’Andre Swift back. He’ll help the offense in a big way. But Green Bay’s defense seriously hasn’t been that bad this season. Once the offense gets clicking, Green Bay will be a tough out.
Take the Packers at -3.5 and watch them rise up a couple of points by the end of next week. This is especially true if the Packers make a deadline move to help their receiving core. Detroit’s defense has been so bad throughout the season, especially in the secondary.
Bet: Packers -3.5 (-110)
