HISTORY: The Commanders and Packers have a historic matchup related to Sept. 11.

Green Bay opens the 2025 season at home against the Detroit Lions.

Packers’ offense vs. Lions’ defense

At this time a year ago, you likely could not find a unit that was flying higher than Green Bay’s offense.

The finish to the 2023 regular season and 48-point barrage in the postseason gave the Packers a ton of confidence going into the 2024 season.

It was not to be.

The Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions will face off at Lambeau Field on Sept. 7, with Jim Nantz and Tony Romo on the call with CBS carrying the game.

That’s unusual with FOX usually being the NFC partner, but with every team playing to start the season, that is the nature of the beast.

The Packers will be looking to get off to a good start, after finishing on a sour note a season ago.

2024 RECORDS: Packers 11-6 (lost in wildcard round). Lions 15-2 (lost in divisional round).

When it comes to the autumn season, one pastime reigns supreme in northeast Wisconsin — football.

Luckily for residents and visitors to the area, Brown County is home to the NFL’s Green Bay Packers. Since 1919, the Green Bay Packers have been a staple in the sporting world and have made way for many to enjoy an autumn or winter Sunday afternoon.

After all the dust settled from the preseason and the roster cuts, the Packers looked like its roster was set for the year, until general manager Brian Gutekunst made one of the biggest moves of recent NFL history.
