The Detroit Lions beat the Green Bay Packers in one of the best games of the year. The Lions were able to score 34 points despite their run game struggling. Jared Goff had a very efficient game and made big plays when needed and the Packers offense struggled in the first half but got going

Detroit Lions pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson was thought to be out for the season when he suffered a fractured left tibia and fibula in Week 6 against the Dallas Cowboys. Not only might that not be the case, but the Lions are hopeful that he will be back much sooner than that. According to Jay
