Lions Actually Do Have Claws (Occasionally)
Now, before you drown your sorrows in Vernors, let's not forget some glorious moments in Lions' history. The Lions have actually SWEPT the Packers in recent years (2017 and 2018), proving that even the cheese curds can get stale sometimes. And who can forget the legendary 2018 shutout at Lambeau? The Packers got shut out for the first time since, well, let's just say Matthew Stafford deserves a statue for that one [Wikipedia].
QuickTip: Skim fast, then return for detail.
Moral of the story? The Lions might not win every game, but they definitely have the fighting spirit (and cheese-thwarting potential) to keep things interesting.
