Quarterback Brett Hundley and The Packers host their division rival Detroit Lions on Monday Night Football and are a rare home underdog in the game.
Making his second NFL start, Hundley and his team are a 3-point underdog to a Lions team that has won just four of their last 22 games against the Packers.
This will be the Packers only appearance on Monday Night Football this season. They already played, and beat, the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football and have one game — at Pittsburgh (11/26) — scheduled for Sunday Night Football.
Here’s how the staff at bobmcginnfootball.com sees the game.
Bob McGinn: It’s going to be cold and it’s going to be close. The Packers have had 15 days to get healthy and get their stuff together. Detroit knows it’s hard to win divisional road games without a running game.
Charlie McGinn: With an extra week to prepare, you’d think the Packers would come out with a strong game plan. However, I don’t think it matters. The Packers are a poorly built team and without Rodgers to hide their weaknesses they will continue to get exposed. Detroit 24 Green Bay 17
Rob Reischel: Mike McCarthy and his staff have had 15 days to devise a winning gameplan. Quarterback Brett Hundley stayed in town during the bye week to get up to speed. The Packers are rested, healthy, and in perfect position to spring a minor upset. But until Hundley & Co. prove it, it’s hard to pick them over a Matthew Stafford-led team. Detroit 23, Green Bay 16
Mark Eckel: Brett Hundley gets a pass for emergency work against the Vikings and then only a week prepare for the Saints. Now, with two weeks to get ready he must show he can pass for the Packers to stay in the playoff hunt. I think he will. Green Bay 24, Detroit 20
