Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers (3-5) are in trouble this season. They need a win over Dan Campbell's Detroit Lions (1-6) to have a chance at saving their season.

The Matt LaFleur-coached group is coming off a demoralizing Week 8 loss ahead of this pivotal NFC North showdown against the Lions, who, behind Jared Goff and D'Andre Swift, have collected just one win during the 2022 NFL season. Can the Lions find some magic against a downtrodden Packers team? The game kicks off Sunday at 1 p.m. ET from Ford Field.

Lorenzo Reyes: Packers 28, Lions 21

Detroit's offense came back in the first half against the Dolphins but was shut out after halftime. This is a perfect get-right opportunity for Rodgers and the Packers, against this Lions' defense that is at or near the bottom in most major categories. 

Safid Deen: Packers 27, Lions 24

Rodgers and the Packers can finally get it right in this game. Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon will get plenty of action in this one, while the Lions remain competitive but just not competitive enough.

Lance Pugmire: Lions 27, Packers 24

Despite all the positive talk from Rodgers, Green Bay is a shell of itself and nothing will illustrate that more than a road loss to its longtime punching bag. 

Jarrett Bell: Packers 27, Lions 20

Nate Davis: Packers 30, Lions 23

Tyler Dragon: Packers 25, Lions 20

NFL WEEK 8 WINNERS AND LOSERS: Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is an MVP candidate; Rams are average
