Detroit Lions All-Pro to miss Packers game
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell announced on Tuesday that safety Kerby Joseph, a 2024 All-Pro who led the NFL in interceptions last season, will miss the team’s Thanksgiving game against the Green Bay Packers. Joseph, along with Brian Branch, is considered to be half of one of the NFL’s best safety pairings in the […]
Christian Watson looks like a new man in his return from a torn ACL
Today is the 325th day since Christian Watson tore his ACL. I’ll be the first to admit I was among the doubters. Seeing Watson crumpled on the Lambeau Field turf, I thought the great experiment was at an end. Watson, the small-school prospect on whom the Packers had spent two second round picks, had been […]
What’s changed since Week 1? How the Lions have succeeded, struggled in 2025
Hello, Green Bay Packers fans. My name is Erik Schlitt, and I’m the managing editor at Pride of Detroit, Acme Packing Company’s Lions-based brother site at SB Nation. I’ve been covering the Lions for over a decade and am in my eighth credentialed season. SB Nation asked APC and POD to each have a writer […]
Tuesday Cheese Curds: Emanuel Wilson answers the call
Emanuel Wilson is one of the best stories to emerge from the Packers’ Week 12 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. His unexpected 107-yard outburst is the Packers’ highest rushing total of the season, and it caps off a long road to something resembling stardom for Wilson. Once a small school star, Wilson was the man […]
Packers Depth Chart Update: Green Bay’s offense gets even heavier
The Green Bay Packers strolled to a win over the Minnesota Vikings that only saw their defense play a total of 44 plays, so the team should be relatively rested for their upcoming game against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving. Let’s take you through all of the changes on the team’s depth chart, along with […]
Packers Film Room: How Green Bay attacks the perimeter
In this space, we take a look at the Green Bay Packers’ passing game, be it ever so humble. The Packers came into this game with Jordan Love banged up, and there seemed to be a strong desire to get him out of this game, taking a minimal amount of hits. At least, that was […]
Packers Discussion: What will Green Bay’s divisional record be?
It’s officially Week 13 in the NFL, and the Green Bay Packers have only played two divisional games. That means the Packers will play four division games in the remaining six weeks, and just played their first of three division games in a row. The Packers beat the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday and are headed […]
How Jordan Love & Dontayvion Wicks converted an unlikely 3rd down
After scoring a TD to take a 7-3 lead on their opening drive, the Green Bay Packers’ defense held the Minnesota Vikings to a punt. And what a punt it was: Ryan Wright hit a beautiful coffin corner punt that shot sideways out of bounds at the 2-yard line. That set the Packers up in […]
NFC Playoff Picture: Green Bay Packers win to stay in wild card position
The Green Bay Packers won on Sunday in very convincing fashion, so no matter what happens the rest of the weekend, they will hold onto a playoff spot. They were in line to take the NFC North lead by the Chicago bears pulled out a close game over the Pittsburgh Steelers to stay in first. […]
Panthers vs. 49ers Game Info: Playoff contenders meet on Monday Night
Believe it or not, the winner of tonight’s Monday Night Football game will be sitting in playoff position. That’s a surprising situation for one of these teams in particular, as the Carolina Panthers have found some winning ways and are 6-2 over their last eight games. The Panthers are in a tie with the Tampa […]
Packers-Lions Injury Report: 4 non-participants for Green Bay
The Green Bay Packers did not have a practice at all on Monday, while the Detroit Lions only had a walkthrough leading up to their Thanksgiving Day matchup. Because of that, both teams’ first injury reports of the week are only estimations. Still, there’s some information to take from the self-reporting. Packers’ Non-Participants Had Green […]
Packers Week 13 Odds: Lions favored over Green Bay in Thanksgiving game
It took until Week 13, but the Green Bay Packers are finally underdogs for their upcoming game at the start of a week. The Packers have been favored in each of their first 11 games of the 2025 season at the beginning of the weeks leading up to their games, though the line did shift […]
Matt LaFleur staying conservative was the right choice vs. Vikings
I’m playing both sides, so that I always come out on top. Basically all season, and as recently as last week, I wrote that the Green Bay Packers need to lean harder into Jordan Love and a very efficient passing game if they’re going to be a threat in the NFC this year. And yet, […]
Green Bay Packers News: All three phases contribute in win over Vikings
For once, the Green Bay Packers played complementary football in all three phases on Sunday afternoon. The offense, defense, and special teams all got into the act, powering the Packers to a dominant 23-6 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. The defense was arguably the most impressive unit on Sunday, however. The team has now allowed […]
Fact-checking Micah Parsons’ claims about his 10-sack season
Micah Parsons recorded his ninth and 10th sacks of the season against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, joining some elite company in the process. He and Reggie White are now the only players in NFL history to record 10 or more sacks in each of their first five NFL seasons. For his part, Parsons doesn’t […]
The NFC playoffs is an 8-man race for 7 spots
Even though Week 12 still isn’t even over, it’s very obvious who the NFC’s playoff spots will come down to. Both NFL Pro’s data and the New York Times’ playoff predictor have the following teams with less than a two percent chance of making the postseason: the Atlanta Falcons, Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals, Washington Commanders, […]
The Green Bay Packers are a 6-lineman team now
Prior to the Green Bay Packers losing tight end Tucker Kraft with an ACL tear, the team had never dabbled in six-offensive line sets, which are mostly ways to get an extra blocker on the field for the running game. Starting in Week 10, though, the week after Kraft’s injury, the team started sprinkling in […]
Packers Week 12 Winners and Losers: Go off, Emanuel Wilson
With Sunday’s 23-6 win over the Minnesota Vikings, the Green Bay Packers have officially won more divisional matchups this year than they did during the entire 2024 season, and that’s with 4 NFC North games left to go! The Packers were missing a slew of players, including RB Josh Jacobs, WR Matthew Golden, and LB […]
Packers Snap Counts: Anthony Belton takes over at guard vs. Vikings
Between the depth chart shuffles on the offensive line and at tight end, plus the injuries impacting the running back, linebacker and cornerback positions, there’s a ton of information that we got about the Green Bay Packers’ roster in their win over the Minnesota Vikings. Remember, this is a short week, as the Packers are […]
Matt LaFleur is addicted to running the football
Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur doesn’t care who is in the backfield. He’s going to run the football as much as he possibly can. In their first stress-free win since Week 2, the Packers ran 65 offensive plays in a 23-6 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Of those plays, 42 of them were […]
Packers-Viking Final Score: Green Bay coasts to comfortable win over Minnesota
Finally, the Green Bay Packers managed to win comfortably in a game that they were expected to do so. Playing without Josh Jacobs and a somewhat limited Jordan Love, the Packers cruised against the Minnesota Vikings, harassing quarterback J.J. McCarthy frequently en route to a 23-6 victory. Emanuel Wilson was the star offensively for the […]
Green Bay rules out Keisean Nixon in Packers-Vikings
The Green Bay Packers were already out one cornerback in Nate Hobbs (knee) coming into Sunday, before losing Keisean Nixon with a stringer. In the second quarter, Nixon ran full speed into the home sideline and collided with defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt in a play that left Nixon down on the ground surrounded by the […]
Packers QB Jordan Love has a separated shoulder
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, who broke the news that running back Josh Jacobs wouldn’t be playing today against the Minnesota Vikings, gave us an update on the status of quarterback Jordan Love on Sunday. According to Pelissero, Love is “still really sore” from the injury that he sustained against the New York Giants, which led […]
