Packers battle Lions for seeding

The Green Bay Packers can earn a lot more than just a win against the Detroit Lions on Sunday.

 

A Saints loss or a Packers win give the Green and Gold a first-round bye to go along with its home game reward for being the NFC North champion. Throw a 49ers loss into the mix and the Packers could earn home-field advantage throughout the playoffs in addition to its first round bye. The Lions are no push over despite them losing nine of their last ten games. It took a walk-off field goal by Mason Crosby to tip the Lions 23-22 at Lambeau in the teams' first meeting this year, which also snapped a four game losing streak for the Packers against their Detroit rivals.

 

Kick-off is set for noon.
