The Green Bay Packers are visiting the Detroit Lions on the first of three games on Thanksgiving Day. The Packers beat the Lions back in week one 27-13 holding Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery to only 44 total rushing yards.  The Lions allowed four sacks and threw a pick while thr Packers didnt give up any sacks and didnt turn thr ball over.  The Lions are playing much better football as of late. The Packers have been up and down. If Packers find a way to win today, they probably win the division.  Lions fans have good news in center Frank Ragnow is unretiring. He won't be eligible to play until next week though.

The Denver Broncos and Bo Nix are playing well this season. After beating their division rival, the Las Vegas Raiders last night, they hold an 8-2 record.  Don't get too excited though, they have only beaten one team above 500 (Eagles). Their two losses are against the Chargers and the Colts.  Don't get me wrong, this team is playing well, has a good defense, and a good young quarterback, but lets see how they do against teams with winning records.  Their nect game is against the Kansas City Chiefs. 

Well the NFC North just got more complicated. All 4 teams have 4 or 5 wins after today's games. Green Bay 5-2-1 Detroit 5-3 Chicago 5-3 Minnesota 4-4

The Green Bay Packers are 5-1-1 and the scary part is they haven't played all that well. They've struggled with penalties, a few costly turnovers, and mismanagement by coaching staff. This game against thr Panthers seems like it could be a trap game. Packers can't overlook Carolina today.
