The NFL wraps up Week 9 of the 2017 NFL season with a big NFC North rivalry matchup on Monday Night Football. The Green Bay Packers host the Detroit Lions, with kickoff set for 5:30 p.m. PT. ESPN will broadcast the game, with Sean McDonough and Jon Gruden in the booth, and Lisa Salters on the sideline.
The Packers are 4-3, sitting a game and a half back of the Minnesota Vikings atop the NFC North. They have lost two straight since losing Aaron Rodgers for possibly the rest of the season The Lions are 3-4, and have lost three straight as they scuffle along.
The Lions are a two-point road favorite in this one. The Lions could win this one at home, but I have no interest in laying points with them on the road. I think Brett Hundley puts together a solid game, and the Packers win this one outright.
