Green Bay was a 7-point favorite that day.

I didn’t have time to find anybody most of the time. Detroit’s defense played like guys who were on the needle.”Īfterward, Starr called the Lions’ blitz, “the best - or maybe I should say the worst - I’ve seen this year. They were coming off the ball much quicker than we were. “We couldn’t find their defensive line long enough to block it. “Every team blitzes, but Detroit made it work practically all the time. “Detroit’s defensive line blitzed and criss-crossed so well and so quickly they were continually getting the jump on us,” Lombardi said. And Packers quarterback Bart Starr was under siege all day and was sacked 11 times. The Lions defensive front dominated Green Bay’s offensive line. The loss had to come sometime, but I honestly didn’t think it would come today.” See / sportsbook for details.“Nobody in his right mind could have expected it. Bills should steamroll through this game. Without Alvin Kamara, I just can’t see how New Orleans keeps this one competitive. Prediction: Bills - Not having a legitimate quarterback has been tough on the Saints offense by itself but missing their best offensive lineman and do-it-all running back is a quick way to get on the fast track to a primetime loss. Derek Carr has looked nothing his early-season self as of late and it’s that guy the Raiders need in this game, not the current edition who struggles to throw the ball consistently down the field. Prediction: Cowboys - The Raiders are currently in the midst of their autumn-time fall in the standings and a bout with a good Dallas team is in no way what they need to their act together. If winning saves his paycheck, Dalton likely gives the team their best shot. That doesn’t exactly breed any more confidence in the team than when Justin Fields is starting but Nagy is essentially fighting for his job at this point. Prediction: Bears - Head coach Matt Nagy announced earlier this week that Andy Dalton will be the team’s starting quarterback against the Lions. I’m thankful for you all!
