This is a 10* TOTAL OF WEEK on the OVER Lions/Packers.

We have a big time NFC North battle here in Green Bay on Thursday night, and on the short week, I say it's each team's defense that suffers.

Both teams are 2-1 SU. Green Bay is 3-0 ATS, while Detroit is 2-1 ATS.

Honestly, it would not be too difficult to write a convincing argument for either of these teams to win this game, and that's why I'm steering clear of a side.

I just expect this one to be decided by the men under center in Jordan Love and Jared Goff.

The Lions are coming off a 20-6 win over the Falcons, while the Packers squeaked out the 18-17 win over the Saints.

Two lower-scoring defensive battles, but I'm definitely anticipating a faster-paced, and ultimatley higher-scoring game here.

All signs point to this one flying OVER the number sooner, rather than later.

Good luck, NP
