The Detroit Lions, led by quarterback Jared Goff, face the Green Bay Packers, led by quarterback Jordan Love, on Thursday, Nov. 27, 2025 (9/7/25) at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan.

Detroit Lions may need to switch things up to improve their pass rush prowess. Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard understands the defense must now put aside past errors and issues and execute at the highest level down the stretch.

The Detroit Lions didn't log a sack in Thursday's loss to the Packers, but Dan Campbell only saw three plays in which the pass rush disappointed.

Last year, the Detroit Lions went 15-2 and locked up the top seed in the NFC. After a 5-2 start, coach Dan Campbell's Lions have lost three of five and needed a 59-yard field goal from Jake Bates to avoid a home loss to the New York Giants.

The Detroit Lions suffered a tough loss on Thursday to a division rival, one that puts their playoff hopes in serious jeopardy. Detroit dropped to 7-5 with the loss, as the Packers defeated them 31-24 on Thanksgiving at Ford Field. The loss also had a cost, as wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was injured and left the game in the first quarter.

It’s been a miserable week for Detroit Lions playoff odds. Based on the results of the four games already played in Week 14, the Lions’ playoff odds plummeted from 73% to 32%, according to the New York Times simulator.
