Why the Packers’ Thanksgiving Showdown Against the Lions Could Rewrite Rivalry History
The 2025 Thanksgiving NFL triple-banger kicks off at 1 p.m. ET with the Detroit Lions (7-4) hosting the Green Bay Packers (7-3-1). This is their second meeting this season: Green Bay beat Detroit 27-13 at home in Week 1 as -1 favorites. The then-4-6 Packers upset the then-8-2 Lions as +8 underdogs on Turkey Day 2023, so it’s not like Detroit’s home-field advantage is the end-all, be-all.Â
Available at most sportsbooks, with BetMGM having the best price (-102) as of Tuesday, 3:15 p.m. ET.Â
Green Bay QB Jordan Love’s Thanksgiving resume rocks: Undefeated on the holiday with sharp accuracy, clean sheets, and big yardage. Zoom out, and it tracks with the broader arc: Love’s efficiency has lived in the top tier this season on the fancy stuff (EPA plus completion percentage over expectation) and the mainstream stuff (QBR).Â
