Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers flexed to 'Sunday Night Football' (prideofdetroit.com)

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.

Detroit Lions-Green Bay Packers flexed to Sunday Night Football ... (Sidelion Report)

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.

Lions-Packers scheduled for Sunday Night Football (detroitlions.com)

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.

Packers Week 17 Snap Counts: Backups get run late in blowout win ... (Acme Packing Company)

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.

The Green Bay Packers Have Fully Evolved (Packers Talk)

The Green Bay Packers look fully evolved after destroying the Minnesota Vikings 41-17 in a contest that showcased dominance in all three phases of the game.

The Packers get the Lions at Lambeau next week in a season finale that could determine who gets the final Wild Card playoff spot. The Packers had a few missed opportunities between Rodgers and Christian Watson that could have gotten the game out of hand even earlier. Yes, if the defense can continue this miraculous streak of forcing turnovers. Is this version of the Packers, at what seems to be their peak of play, good enough to win the Super Bowl if they were to make the playoffs? The Packers had two sacks, one of which was a strip sack by Kenny Clark. The Packers have struck gold on a late-round offensive lineman once again. Besides that, Cousins wasn’t under much duress for most of the game despite playing with a third-string center and a backup tackle. The Packers’ defense has played with so much more ferocity over the current winning streak and it’s absolutely a reason why they’ve been able to force more turnovers. Justin Jefferson torched the Packers in Week 1 with 9/184/2. Barry’s gameplan excelled in the rematch, as Alexander followed Jefferson all over the field and was often helped with a double team from a safety. All three units are humming and contributing, perfectly exemplified in this extraordinary blowout of the Vikings. It’d be the only points Minnesota would put up until the game was far out of reach in the 4th quarter.

Packers' playoff scenarios after Week 17 win over Vikings (ClutchPoints)

The Packers-Vikings game made the final NFC playoff spot a three-team race between Green Bay, Detroit, and the Seattle Seahawks. Here are the Packers' playoff ...

That’s because the Lions lost to the Seahawks in a 48-45 thriller back in Week 4. If the Seahawks win in Week 18 and the Packers lose, it is Pete Carroll’s crew who makes the dance. Outside of Green Bay, Detroit may be the second-hottest team in the NFL. After four-plus months of up-and-down football, and all the drama that comes with Rodgers, Green Bay is somehow in a prime position to make the postseason. After the Week 17 Packers-Vikings game, Green Bay moved to 6-5 against NFC opponents. By evening their record at 8-8, the Packers head into Week 18 tied with the Seahawks and Lions.
