It is nearly time for the Green Bay Packers to get their 2025 season underway. While there was already palpable excitement for this team heading towards their week one game, the level of anticipation went up another several notches last week when they acquired Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys. Now fans are left waiting just a few more hours before seeing Parsons and his number 1 jersey take the field against the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field.
The Packers finally get to open a season at home in 2025, marking the first time since 2018 that they have not been on the road for week one. They get one of their toughest matchups of the season out of the gate, however, facing the Lions — a team that earned the NFC’s #1 playoff seed last season on the backs of a 15-2 record and an NFC North division title.
If the Packers want to win the North this season, they probably need to beat the Lions at least once. They’ll get their first chance to do so this afternoon in a game that will be available on most local CBS stations.
Here’s a look at the details for today’s game. Keep it here at APC all day for full coverage leading up to and during this afternoon’s big NFC North clash.
