2. Take extra care of the football
Detroit’s done a really good job in this regard over the course of their first seven games, ranking fourth in the NFL with just five giveaways. Detroit’s lost just one fumble all year and Goff hasn’t thrown an interception since Week 3 in Arizona.
But Green Bay is the best in the NFL this year at forcing turnovers. They lead the NFL with 19 takeaways and have had multiple takeaways in seven of their eight contests this season. On the road in a tough environment like Lambeau Field, the Lions can’t afford to give the Packers extra possessions or short fields by turning the football over. Same goes for the Packers.
3. Stopping Green Bay’s ground attack
The Packers’ 1,255 rushing yards are the most they’ve had through the first eight games of the season since 1971. Veteran running back Josh Jacobs has been a really nice addition for them as Green Bay ranks fifth in the NFL averaging 156.9 yards on the ground per contest.
Green Bay has 28 explosive runs (12-plus yards), which are third most in the league. Detroit’s been good stopping the run this year, ranking fifth in yards allowed on the ground per game (101.9), so this will be a great matchup of strength on strength.
