RODGER THAT : THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL (WEEK 13)

The Detroit Lions host Thursday Night Football in Week 13 as that welcome to town their NFC North division rival, the Green Bay Packers. In Week 10, the Lions were able to defeat Rodgers and the Packers by a score of 18-16. There are countless of reasons why I think they will do the same here in Week 13 and I'll explain why in this article with the pre-game analysis right here at THEBIRTHLLC.com. Tune in at 8:15 p.m. E.T tonight on CBS and NFL Network for coverage of this huge divisional match-up.

A 1-7 start to the Detroit Lions NFL season has been followed with three consecutive wins. It started in Week 10 against the Packers, continued when they welcome the Raiders to town in Week 11 and was made exclamatory in Week 12 against the Eagles. Most contenders may view the 4-7 start as a sign of incompetence, but NFL analyst are beginning to notice a shift in morale amongst the Lions organization. In what should be a nail biter tonight, expect the Lions offense to put up some big numbers in helping to produce their fourth straight win. If QB Matthew Stafford throws no interceptions and for 300 plus yards be assured that the Lions will win this game in front of the hometown fans at Ford Field. All in One Pride.

Aaron Rodgers. You hear the name and envision the green and yellow jersey's that clothed the Green Bay Packers roster. The only difference now is do we still fear them? It's hard to say. For the first time in many moons the Packers face being swept by the Detroit Lions and are threatened to lose divisional title because of the Minnesota Vikings who have yet to lose a divisional game. The bright spot for the Packers is surprisingly HB Eddie Lacy who continues to run the rock with authority and uncanny tenacity. He's produced 100 yard games in both of the most recent games and has his eyes on  punishing the Detroit defense. Lions DE Ezekiel Ansah may have contrary ideas about the Packers rushing and passing attack tonight. The wavering spirit I have within this article alone is a true testament that this will be an extraordinary match-up. You don't want to miss this.
