The Green Bay Packers will host the Detroit Lions on Sunday and will be expected to get back to winning ways against the NFL's worst team this season so far. The Packers have lost two straight games to fall to 6-2, but the Lions are suffering on 1-7 and it is hard to see them getting anything other than another bad loss today. The game has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the Fox network or online through live stream via the link below.

Today's game takes place from Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and the Packers will be happy to return home after two road losses to the Denver Broncos and the Carolina Panthers.

Green Bay found out a lot about themselves on their recent journeys, and they must now look to tighten up their game and make the necessary improvements to ensure they can be competitive in the postseason.

However, even though the Packers have found out a number of problems in recent weeks, their issues are nothing compared to the Detroit Lions, who require severe changes in just about every area of the game.

Two weeks ago the Packers' offense was completely shut down in Denver, and only managed a season low of 140 yards in their 10-29 loss. Then last week in Carolina they dug themselves into a deep hole, and even though they fought back well, they left themselves too much to do and came away with another loss, this time by a score of 29-37.

They haven't lost three straight games since way back in 2008, and it is highly unlikely their confidence has been bashed enough for them to lose to the woeful Lions today.

Earlier this week the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets faced off on Thursday Night Football in a massive game between two teams with hopeful ambitions of making the Playoffs this season.

Buffalo look to be righting the ship after a tough time recently, and they came away with a confidence boosting 22-17 win.

The Bills defense was in excellent form, shutting down Ryan's former team for a lot of the game, which gave their offense the opportunity to get them over the line.

Rookie Karlos Williams managed a 26 yard touchdown catch, and Duke Williams returned a fumbled kick off 19 yards for the go-ahead points.

The win helped the 5-4 Bills move up into the Wild Card Playoff picture, and set alarm bells ringing in New York. The Jets fall to 5-4 but worryingly have lost three of their last four games now to undermine a lot of the good work they achieved earlier in the season.

Fans will remember that Ryan was fired by the Jets after his six seasons in New York last January, and the win on his return will have been a sweet one. His Bills' defense managed to stop the Jets inside the Buffalo 10 in the final minutes and that was enough to hold off the late push by the Jets.
