Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers: Game Time, TV, Radio, Injury Report
By Zac Snyder
With the Detroit Lions set to take on the Green Bay Packers in week 13 of the 2015 NFL Season, here is all the important info you need for today’s game.
Playing games on a Thursday back-to-back is certainly rare but the Detroit Lions won’t be doing it for the first time when they host the Green Bay Packers tonight. Back in the 2000 season, the Lions followed their Thanksgiving Day win against the New England Patriots with a loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
The Vikings were also playing for a second-straight Thursday, having played the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving the week before. Similarly, the same is true for the Packers tonight.

Unlike in that 2000 season, the Lions have both games at home. That is a decided advantage as the Lions look to do something they haven’t done since 1991 – sweep a season-series from the Packers.
There are 9 #Lions players who were not even born the last time Detroit swept a season series from Green Bay (1991). Could happen Thur.
