Rodgers’ 3 TD’s Help Packers Declaw Lions 34-12
Thanksgiving Day seems to treat the Detroit Lions like redheaded stepchildren.

It looked as if the Lions had a chance to win their first game of the season, but in the end it was the Vikings who came up with the key plays down the stretch. The Lions are so bad that even when they forced two turnovers, and Adrian Peterson has ball security issues, they [...]
