The Detroit Lions have diagnosed what went wrong up front vs. Packers and they’re confident things will look better in Week 2.
Early in the game, Detroit was stuffing the Packers’ run game, setting up favorable down-and-distances.

Six inactives for the Lions in their season opener as safety Thomas Harper, running back Sione Vaki, linebacker Trevor Nowaske, and D-linemen Chris Smith, Mekhi Wingo and Tyrus Wheat will all be unavailable. The Lions will wear all-white for their season opener against the Packers. The Detroit Lions’ 2025 season has finally arrived.
Detroit ran 24 plays on first-and-10. Those 24 plays gained 71 total yards, averaging a paltry 2.96 yards per play. Compare that to last season, when the Lions averaged 6.65 yards per play on first-and-10. The 2023 first-and-10 average of 6.61 stayed remarkably consistent into 2024. It fell off a cliff in the opener.
