Green Bay Packers

GREEN BAY -- The NFL announced today that the Green Bay Packers will host the Detroit Lions at 7:20 p.m. CT on Sunday, Jan. 8, at Lambeau Field.

The Lions' playoff fate hinges on this game and the result of the Rams-Seahawks game earlier Sunday. The game will be broadcast on NBC. GREEN BAY -- The NFL announced today that the Green Bay Packers will host the Detroit Lions at 7:20 p.m.

The Detroit Lions will be facing the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night Football this week at Lambeau Field, the NFL announced Monday.

A win Sunday against Detroit and they are in no matter what happens with Seattle because Green Bay owns the tie breaker over the Seahawks by having a better conference record. So the Lions will know if they are playing for a chance to get into the playoffs or are just playing the role of spoiler by the time they kick off Sunday night. The Lions would get into the playoffs if they beat Green Bay and Seattle loses at home to the Los Angeles Rams.

The Lions and Packers will close out the 2022 regular season with a huge matchup.

One of the best to ever play the game and whenever you’ve got that at the quarterback position with that running back and the offensive line. But Campbell acknowledged that this is a different Green Bay team than the one they faced a couple months ago. The game will kick off at 8:20 p.m. The Packers capitalized on that opportunity by winning four in a row, and now Green Bay is in control of their own destiny. [Seattle Seahawks](https://www.fieldgulls.com/) to either lose or tie to the [Los Angeles Rams](https://www.turfshowtimes.com/) prior to kickoff for Detroit’s playoffs hopes to remain. The Lions are one of the hottest teams in the NFL, having won seven of their last nine games.

The NFL regular season will officially wrap up at Lambeau Field. The league released times for its Week 18 games on Monday afternoon.

When the Tennessee Titans-Jacksonville Jaguars to decide the AFC South champion was announced for Saturday night in Week 18, and with the uncertainty over ...

But now they have a primetime opportunity in Week 18 to show how much better they are, and offer the world a glimpse at their promise for the future. So the Lions will know, barring the aforementioned win and tie, if they have a chance at the NFC’s last Wild Card spot before the 8:20 ET kickoff on Sunday night. There’s another scenario where the Lions would get in–a Packers-Lions tie, a Rams-Seahawks tie and the Washington Commanders beating the Dallas Cowboys in another 4:25 ET game Sunday–but it’s unlikely.

Each member of the foursome — Kenny Clark, Jarran Reed, Devonte Wyatt, and T.J. Slaton — made their impacts felt early and often, and the group had by far its ...

Nixon’s huge day came on his only kickoff return attempt of the game, as he let his only other opportunity go for a touchback. The Packers had planned to use Ramiz Ahmed as their kickoff specialist in this game, but Crosby had to perform those duties after Ahmed suffered a groin injury in warmups. All three of the Packers’ interceptions of Kirk Cousins came from the safety group, with Savage, Amos, and Ford each getting one and Savage taking his back for a 75-yard touchdown. Hollins recorded two hits, including one of the Packers’ two sacks, while Enagbare had two hits of his own on Cousins and Smith had one. McDuffie ended the game with four tackles on his 12 snaps plus a fifth on special teams. Slaton had four total tackles, including a massive TFL on the early goal-line stand, and he broke up two passes at the line of scrimmage, one that got tipped for an interception by Adrian Amos. He had two of the Packers’ three plays of 20-plus yards, that 21-yard score plus a 24-yard gain in the fourth quarter. He caught his only target for four yards, but it is his work in the run game that continues to stand out on film. They then brought on backups in place of Bakhtiari and Jenkins for the final two series when It was a quiet day for the Packers’ passing game in general, but Lazard had a typically-efficient day, catching five of six targets for 59 yards. He finished the day with just one reception for 11 yards on five targets, but seeing him play a mostly-full workload after missing two days of practice was an encouraging sign. One of the big reasons for the Packers’ victory on Sunday afternoon was its defensive line, a group that had just four players active after Dean Lowry was sent to injured reserve this week and Jonathan Ford remained a healthy scratch.

There's plenty at stake for the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions for their season-ending showdown at Lambeau Field. The NFL put the game in a featured ...

“I’ve been counted out many times in my life as have many of my teammates, and I hope we just dig deep and find a way,” Rodgers said at the time. “The fact that we came back from 4-8 and put ourselves in the position to make the playoffs is pretty special,” quarterback Aaron Rodgers said on Sunday. The Packers lost 15-9 at Detroit in December. The Packers have won four consecutive games to dig their way out of a 4-8 hole and put themselves in position to earn a fourth consecutive playoff berth under coach Matt LaFleur. It’s not so cut and dried for the Lions or Seahawks. “Now, I believe that a lot has happened in our favor and that’s pretty obvious. If the Bills knock off the Bengals, Cincinnati will play Baltimore for the AFC North championship on Sunday. Seattle will host the Los Angeles Rams (5-11) on Sunday afternoon. Will they lose their competitive spirit if they fall behind on a chilly Sunday night? The Packers, Lions and Seattle Seahawks are 8-8 entering Week 18. That would have been a compelling Sunday night game. “I do think the environment in Lambeau Field at nighttime is unlike any other place,” coach Matt LaFleur said on Monday.
