The two-time defending NFC North champion Detroit Lions head to Lambeau Field to face off against the rival Green Bay Packers in what has become one of Week 1's marquee matchups.
Green Bay stunned the entire NFL by acquiring All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons in a trade with the Dallas Cowboys in exchange for defensive tackle Kenny Clark and two first-round picks. Parsons will help the Packers defense do battle against a Lions offense that led the league in scoring offense (33.2 points per game, best in franchise history). However, Detroit will be working through some changes too with both offensive coordinator Ben Johnson , now the coach of the Chicago Bears , and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, now the coach of the New York Jets , no longer on the Lions' sideline.
