Lions-Packers Week 1 Score Predictions From MLive’s Beat Writers

Packers aim to improve their 1-5 NFC North record by focusing on faster starts and reducing turnovers in the 2025 season opener against the Detroit Lions.

  • The Green Bay Packers will kick off their 2025 season at Lambeau Field on Sunday against the Detroit Lions, who have won the NFC North title the past two years.
  • The Packers struggled in 2024, finishing 11-7 overall but going 1-5 in the NFC North, their worst divisional record since 2005, largely due to falling behind early in games.
  • Green Bay was outscored 99-40 at halftime in six divisional games while outscoring opponents 192-89 before halftime in their other 11 games, indicating their need for faster starts.
  • Quarterback Jordan Love acknowledged that the team's efforts throughout the season against NFC North opponents fell short of their expectations, while coach Matt LaFleur highlighted the importance of a strong beginning and impactful defensive plays to change the course of games.
  • The Packers aim to reverse these trends in 2025 against a Lions team that has won six of seven meetings under coach Dan Campbell, making this opening game critical for their divisional prospects.
