3 Lions that could have a tough time against Packers in Week 7

SideLion Report's Candace Pedraza argues that three Detroit Lions players could face difficult matchups against the Green Bay Packers in Week 7. Pedraza views the contest as a critical divisional game for Detroit before an eventual late-season trip to Lambeau Field. Despite Detroit holding advantages in health and weather, the analysis identifies running back Jahmyr Gibbs, cornerback Ennis Rakestraw Jr., and lineman Blake Miller as players who could experience challenging individual battles.

Pedraza points out that Gibbs has historically struggled against Green Bay, who will likely focus heavily on neutralizing Detroit's ground attack. Meanwhile, Rakestraw's discipline will reportedly be tested by Jordan Love's deep passing against receivers like Matthew Golden and Christian Watson. Additionally, Miller faces an emerging pass-rush threat in Packers edge rusher Dani Dennis-Sutton, who is seeing increased playing time while Micah Parsons recovers from injury.
