We here at Gambling911.com are not exactly intent on betting the Lions, but it sure is tempting in this scenario.  These are some interesting trends that go against Green Bay's chances of covering this 11 point line.

While the Packers are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a ATS loss, they are also 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games following a S.U. win.

Also , it should be noted that the Packers are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 Thursday games.

Of course, these are the lowly Detroit Lions and Green Bay has had their number (winning by more than the current spread) over their last couple of meetings. 

Detroit is 3-11 ATS in their last 14 home games and are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games following a S.U. win.

It is going to be an interesting game as pointed out by NFL.com. While blackouts have occurred in the Motor City over the past couple of seasons, the fans come out in force on Thanksgiving. The Lions always host the early Thanksgiving game and Schwartz will quickly find out how passionate the crowd can be on the holiday.
